[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I saw classroom trailers in NW recently - some don't have bathrooms, or very good heating or AC, and they eat up good chunks of playgrounds. Who would want those at Brent? The $60,000 question is how can Brent offer everything parents want - no boundary changes, no trailers, smallish classes, and PreS3 forever. These are questions for Principal Young, the Brent LSAT, DCPS, Kaya Henderson and the DC City Council on Education, not me. I just want my tiny tots to be able to attend. [/quote] According to one poster, "many" IB families want those trailers. In another thread, shut-out PreS3 parents fantasized about putting trailers on the roof of Brent, as well as other equally ridiculous scenarios such as sacrificing the all-purpose room and library. Without boundary changes, Brent is looking at 60+ K cohort in SY 2015-16, with little prospect for attrition as they rise through First, Second and Third Grades. This may very well doom PreS3, as well as adding additional PreK4 slots due to class size limits and space constraints. As unfortunate as it may be for some, no immutable right to attend Brent conveyed with the title to their residence.[/quote]
