[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Congratulations Lee families and good job for your administration for finding a great work around in a year when DGS isn't letting any surplus buildings for bid.[/quote]

It's been an all around good year.  SSMA did a great job too![/quote]

It has been a good facility year in a year DGS let no facilities (which needs to change).  I hope this also means that Potomac Lighthouse building can rebuild/recharter in place so those families aren't disrupted.[/quote]

Out of curiosity, what buildings would you would have wanted that DGS is holding on to? It's my understanding, there aren't many other that Shaw (which we all know will never be released).[/quote]

Not necessarily ones I would choose for my kids school (we live in Petworth), but other empty DCPS schools include Emery, Marshall, Shaw

I also wonder about the affect of Brookland Middle on Burroughs, Langdon, Bunker Hill and Noyes.  By moving out 3 grades from those already underenrolled schools, should there be some realignment in Woodridge/Brookland/Langdon neighborhoods, or is the school age population growth really that great?[/quote]

Exactly no buildings anyone wants anyway. You can't release schools that are currently enrolled and even if they did realign, it would take a while to make sure before they made assignment changes.[/quote]

Langdon and Bunker Hill are both on lovely pieces of land (and I like the buildings with some updates).  I haven't been inside Burroughs (but great greenspace) or Noyes (across the street from a park).  Is the Breakthrough location temporary or permanent?  [/quote]

And these are schools that are currently open. Why exactly would DGS release these buildings? [/quote]
