[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The city's timeline for rebuilding schools is way too slow. [b]This George Mason rebuild won't be complete for 10 years.[/b] Schools are overcrowded now and they are building so much housing. They should be building completely new schools NOW. Not just talking about rebuilds someone in the future. This is a case of too little to late.

Also let's talk about the Nannie J Lee rec center. This space should be a school. Not used as an office building for city employees. I don't understand why children will be without feilds on the west end in high rise office buildings when on the other end of town city office workers are chillin in a single story building surrounded by ball feilds.

Where are you seeing 10 years? ACPS is saying it will be done in fall 2026.

Nannie Lee was a school. School board in the 70s I think gave it to the city. ACPS has asked for it back but city has said no multiple times. [/quote]

I grew up here and right before I started school or when I was in early elementary it was given to the city. The districting was all different bc at the time old town was zoned for elementary at Maury and then all of those kids went to lyles crouch 4-6 and then GW 7-9. [/quote]

That is so weird, to have all kids  together in just one school for just 2 grades, but I suppose that explains why Minnie Howard is just 9th. What year was that? [/quote]

Minnie Howard became just 9th grade around 1994 or 95 I think, when the junior high schools became middle schools, and so all the 9th graders moved into Minnie Howard.
