[quote=Anonymous]Murch families really have not received much information from DGS on the renovation and the swing space.  Tomorrow's meeting is one of the first meetings we've been offered in some time and it's an opportunity for us to get a substantive update from DC on the plans for our renovation.  I truly hope that the Layfayette parents will respect this and let us have an opportunity to meet with DGS, hear their plans for the renovation, the selected builder, etc. (not just swing space) without coming to the meeting and hijacking it with their concerns.  Murch parents have many concerns with the renovation related to the footprint of the resulting structures (and available play space), whether the school will effectively support a learning environment, be ADA compliant, include a cafeteria (so kids no longer have to eat in classrooms), and any number of other issues.

The Layfayette community had an opportunity to participate in this discussion earlier in the week, has made their opinion clear via multiple listservs and letters from community members and representatives, and will continue to have opportunities to present their position.  Some of the Lafayette parents have indicated that they plan to attend and I truly hope that, if they do, they respect the Murch community enough to allow us to have our meeting on the LONG TERM impact on our community without trying to focus everything on how they would possibly be impacted for two years.[/quote]
