First, it's nonsense that there was no Glover Park representation on the Working Group, every school in the Wilson feeder had representation. Second, the Working Group didn't "agree to hurt Glover Park to help Foxhall/Palisades," because the Working Group didn't decide anything, the Mayor and Chancellor Ferebee did. Third, it's not true that the plan is to "fill it mainly with kids from Stoddert/Glover Park." Here is exactly what Ferebee said in his letter announcing that the school would be built, in March, 2022: "This will require drawing a new boundary that re-assigns portions of the Key, Mann and Stoddert boundaries, and developing a phase-in approach for when these changes will go into effect for impacted schools."

A representative from Stoddert is not a representative from Glover Park.  We have ANCs for a reason.  As was brought up at the time, all the other affected ANCs had representation.  This was a major unforced error by Cheh/DCPS that was the first clue she was headed out the door.

Obviously if you build an ES for the Palisades, they're going to have to get kids to fill the school from somewhere.  That somewhere, by every working group 'study', is Glover Park.

It's funny, and obvious politically, why no one mentions Burleith in the proposed shuffle.[/quote]
