[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Time for beaurocracies to push themselves and their employees out of their comfort zones intstead of taking well trodden path of just depriving kids of their educational experience.[/quote] I'm going to assume you are joking. Call us when the shuttle lands. You think that schools are the most important thing on the planet because you have school-aged children. The rest of society definitely doesn't agree with you. They aren't going to shut down the rest of the city so your child can be bussed all around to run free in zoos and sports stadiums. You really think the kids would learn there? How exactly would materials magically appear in those places? Do you have any idea how much this plan would cost? You are truly amazing.[/quote] There are only about 70,000 kids in school in he District every day. That is a smaller crowd than attends a Big 10 Football game every weekend. We have civil engineers in this town. heck we have the army corps of engineers FIGURE it out use tents solve the problem we are not talking a full city evacuation of 700,000 people, we talking about 60K-70 kids / 20, 000 of which are off your books as they are in DC Privates[/quote] Are students in outside spaces still restricted to 10 or 12? If so, it doesn't matter how much outdoor space is used if each teacher is restricted to 10 or 12 kids. We don't have enough teachers to cover much smaller groups of kids, regardless of where they are.[/quote]
