[quote=Anonymous]16:06 here. I certainly don't want to be disparage the new parents. I see where they are coming from, and it is an extremely admirable place. I just want them to become fully informed before taking positions that may inadvertently harm the actual cause they support, providing good educational opportunities to neighborhood kids. By proposing and vocally supporting this idea, they are providing ammunition to DCPS to continue to illegally hold onto abandoned property instead of giving it to one of the schools that could really use it. Inspired Teaching, CMI, and Mundo Verde, among others, would have loved it, as it is a great property in a central location with great access to public transportation, but instead DCPS has left it abandoned by relying on "plans" that they cancel as soon as it is time for them to take action. This is just more of the same, and it is important that those who are newly joining this cause understand all of the history and implications.[/quote]
