[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What's the problem with Fillmore, again? Or, for the first time? I missed it.[/quote] Downtown has always hated it. [/quote] And I don't like Asparagus. But, really, what's the problem with Fillmore? That one day Hardy MIGHT want to increase its enrollment and take over Fillmore's art rooms? Is that a good reason? (being a bit snarky here, admittedly([/quote] Cost. The schools pay what they would pay for art teachers and DCPS has to kick in more to make it work. Staff accountability. Some say the teachers are contractors to the Fillmore nonprofit; others say they work for DCPS. But regardless they don't report to a single principal and thus it probably messes with the accountability. Equity. Parents who want to keep Fillmore talk about the excellent arts education they are getting; better, in fact, than what DCPS provides for everyone else. [/quote]
