[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^^ However doing this process poorly also means families peeling off, and doing so in a huff. The way the process has been handled feels rushed and doesn't take under consideration budget implications. There are several schools in dire need of repair/renovation. Is it even possible that DCPS will be able to keep renovations on schedule, let alone build new schools?[/quote]

Anyone peeling off "in a huff" is likely to do so anyway, regardless of an extra year.  DCPS needs families that are going to face realities and jump in. There's not any one public school in the city - DCPS or charter - that reached "highly regarded" status without that critical element.  Those given to huffiness will always gravitate to the places where that works for them.

My kid is only PK4, but his education has to move forward so I feel that there's no time to waste.  I'd really love to see a candidate who shares that sense of urgency in their policy objectives.

For those who support Catania in his proposed delay, what do you hope and expect would be accomplished in a year?[/quote]
