I asked the admin. They said no plans to move. Reiterated long term goal or hope to be unified someday. Somewhere.
So basically no. No one knows anything solid.
Do you think they'll renew the Perry St lease in 2020?

Go away, troll.
So what's the status of the molestation charges then?
Accused is still in jail. Preliminary hearing has been pushed back twice. At last hearing the prosecution said they have 18 complaints filed against him -- both victims and witnesses -- but only 3 formal charges.
Hearing is scheduled for May 12.

The DC residency police (or press!) should swing by any weekday morning. Fish in a barrel. I don't know why the DC government allows it to continue.

Very funny. But really, it is hard to spot a DC plate dropping off.
Different poster- it's at least 80%, if not 90%. I rarely see a DC plate at dropoff for Perry Street. Financially they're barely holding on. If they actually did go under (or find a smaller more appropriately sized space) lamb should take it over.

I don't know how they're able to continue on with their low enrollment numbers.

It seems like there are always some parents "in the know" at LAMB and a lot of others who are not.
I would be unsurprised if they ended up taking the entire Perry street campus.
If they were going to do that why would they be moving 4th and 5th next year to Walter Reed?
Would be somewhat surprising being that there are 2 other schools at that location..

Because there's not room for everyone at SD now. And because they have to pay for Walter Reed.
Consolidating to one campus for 18-19 would involving selling Missouri, selling LAMB's portion of Walter Reed and finding someone to pick up their lease at SD for 18-19 and 19-20, in addition to securing financing and DCPCSB approval to obtain a new building.
No. they can get out of Perry Street lease any time. And as for their other spaces, they would be incredibly easy to lease out, likely for a profit.
One building would be awesome. Anyone know the scoop on Kingsbury?
Kingsbury admin says they're not going anywhere.
