The difference is the CH families never claimed to be walkers. They have very simply asked to keep their community together, because they supported giving Nauck a neighborhood school in Drew and sacrificed their physical neighborhood school building location to accommodate giving Nauck a neighborhood school. They were told the whole Henry community would go to Fleet. CH families also haven't retracted comments from the walk zone survey stating they need a bus b/c it's too dangerous to walk to school like the SF families did. CH never called out another neighborhood and pointed at them and demanded APS create a map that moves them. CH families are classy, intelligent and polite and have been so from the start and no I don't live in CH, but I sure do respect their grace and composure.


Seriously, do you read your own posts? The hyperbole and complete lack of self-awareness is hilarious.

CH didn't "sacrifice" anything or "accommodate" Nauck. Public facilities like schools don't belong to the surrounding neighborhood.

I truly do not believe that.
Not that you took a video and not that you would ever lobby attending Drew.


I live on the corner before the bridge. I didn’t even need to leave my front porch. I have a full view. And yes, I want my children to attend Drew. I have tried to lottery them into the school preschool program (we are just over the income cut off).


Ok. So you don’t value education. Cool story bro.


What are you doing in SF? Move to Clarendon, bro.

This is pretty aggressive. You must be threatened by the boundary changes. I am sure Columbia Heights was convening at their "town square" Columbia Pike in the rain as well....
