This is laughable.

First, Cheh has thousands of constituents who have been in-bounds for Hardy for decades and she hasn't done anything for them. Second, at the start of the boundary process, Cheh said categorically there was one school that would not be moved out of Deal -- Lafayette, which is not in her ward, but is in Bowser's Ward 4.

Eaton parents are not her voters.

You go that right, especially not this in-boundary Eaton parent.

I just wonder if Mary has any aspirations beyond ward 3. I guess not, because then she would be all over the Eaton community.

So then what do you do if your kid is I B for Hardy and is serious about outdoor sports?

Back to the parking lot, and to the comparison between a school nested in an historical district, and a school in what was not many years ago a suburban area.

Yes, they plan to do so, so that teachers will have to pay parking fees in the nearby streets. We hate to retain good teachers.

Idiot.

Should t the needs of the students come first? I don't think schools should be in the business of provding free parking to staff when student recreational and sports space is so limited. Or if parking matters so much, DCPS should put underground parking under an expanded field. That's what they paid to do at Janney.

You kindly explain to him the reasons why a tiny school within an historical district cannot have unlimited fields for him to play baseball. He will understand. If he does not, well , that's not an Hardy's failure.

Kids who want to play sports should appeal to the Deal principal if Hardy can't accommodate them.

Your sentence just shows that you have never entered into the school, and that you are wasting your time (and our time) on this board.
