[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It seems like UDC is the best option, maybe the Murch PTA should get in front of this and start researching options?[/quote]

Hilarious that you think this hasn't been going on for years.[/quote]

Or that the PTA has any say. If that was the case Murch would have been renovated years ago.

[b]I personally think Murch is leaning towards UDC which means DCPS will force us to Lafayette.[/b] [/quote]

Probably. Since DCPS's modus operandi seems to be to make choices so as to piss off the biggest number of people.[/quote]

I'm not sure why the on-site/Forest Hills split isn't more popular. As I understand it, the main problems are the challenges of running a split school and the need to breakdown classrooms on Friday afternoons. But the split campus problem should be mitigated by the proximity of the two sites (just a few blocks apart) and the fact that there's already a separate PK specials teacher. And I'd think that additional conversations with the church could result in some amount of accommodation on the classroom front, especially if we paid the church more or hired additional admin/janitorial staff to handle that work (either of which should be possible considering that both Lafayette and UDC are more expensive).

Considering the number of unknowns about UDC and the price, why isn't this cheaper, closer option getting more attention?[/quote]
