[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why not look at the 2024 supplement to the MFP, Appendix 1 tab F. It shows that some schools have not been modernized in far more than 17 years. Barnard, for example, is getting an addition but its last real modernization was in 2003. Brightwood and Cleveland in 2004. Kelly Miller 2004. Malcolm X waited 19 years. Miner had a 21-year gap between renovations. So did Noyes. Oyster-Adams 23 years. So why choose 17 years as your divisor?[/quote]

Last part first. As I explained, it was a typo. Should have said 14 years. And 14 was chosen to double the 7 that got us to $15k per student. Look at the math in my post - this is pretty and obvious.

Not sure what you are arguing in the rest of your post. Ok...and? DCPS hasn't modernized all schools. They have modernized many of them and spent a ton of money to do so; money that isn't part of the per student calculations. Which is the point here. not sure if I am responding to one person who doesn't get it or many of you. [/quote]

The point is you're cherry-picking Coolidge and using 14 years makes for a higher annual cost. 21 years would more accurately reflect DCPS patterns of renovation scheduling. [/quote]
