[quote=Anonymous]I watched the ANC meeting video and lost a few thousand brain cells. GDS F’d up by not reporting it’s over enrollment ASAP ANC implies they covered it up to make $4 - $5M (never mind that they also spent more too, revenue dues but equal profit) ANC wants them to pay with an “amenity” that will benefit the community, preferably by building low cost housing right next to the school. ANC and GDS disagree on whether all car trips need to be counted, and how to do so. This is where l side with the ANC. Their enrollment cap is tied to trips, therefore GDS will need to find a way to count all of the trips. Maybe they will have to go so far as documenting every day how each student arrived to and was picked up from school. They say they have 46 staff helping with drop off and pickup so surely they can figure out a way to do that. ANC is in hysterics about how they are going to handle the River School traffic. Because they used the same crappy agreement as for GDS. Personally l’m so grateful to have GDS and their magnificent playground in the neighborhood, and am looking forward to River which is currently a wasted lot full of bamboo. But there needs to be a rethink of the admissions caps and how trips are counted and reported, because currently they’re tied in a way that doesn’t work in real life. ANC wants everyone to bus and carpool. That can happen but there will be expensive near empty buses. So tuition goes up for no benefit to the community and environment. I wish ANC would think a but more about the big picture.[/quote]
