[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Has Frumin said he doesn’t support the new high school?[/quote]

He's said he wants to "tap the brakes" and look for other sites [/quote]

That’s Goulet, I think. But who knows? Frumin’s position statements resemble a freely spinning compass. It will be interesting to hear what he has to say on the NIMBYs’ front lawn next Sunday. If he had any principles, he’d insist that it be a joint event with Tricia, but I guess that’s not how politics works.[/quote]

Are you able to read?  Frumin has had his position on the new schools up on his website since before the race was serious.

He also responds to emailed questions, unlike some other candidates.[/quote]

This article utterly fails in taking a position on the schools. For Foxhall ES, he calls for looking at other options like expanding current schools (we have been doing that for decades in Ward 3 and we still need a new ES). For the high school in Palisades, he calls for engaging "the Hardy community and neighbors in the planning for how the school will work both programmatically and as part of the fabric of the community" before opening the school and allowing children to attend.

Community input is good. But we have had that for years on this issue, and this was the solution that the community came up with. This is our best shot at tackling overcrowding at Wilson and other schools in the ward, and it would be insane to walk it back now or wait any longer for more "input."[/quote]
