[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I guess I don't understand why Walls can't get priority on nearby DPR-run city fields/rec centers. Both are owned/operated by DC. And, why would Walls need to pay to use those (DC owned and operated) facilities? Why can't the right hand talk to/know what the left hand is doing? Total idiocy.[/quote] Because DPR gives DC public schools lowest priority. Private schools and other leagues book up most of the time on DPR fields. This policy must be quietly sanctioned by the mayor as it has been like that for her entire tenure [/quote] The Council passed a law a few years ago requiring DPR to give DCPS and DCPCS schools highest priority, second only to DPR's own programs. But DPR has refused to obey that law. Bowser re-orged to put both DCPS and DPR under the DME, which was supposed to result in greater cooperation and coordination, but they operate like they're warring nations. [/quote]
