Ward 3 Councilwoman Mary Cheh delivered a brutal tongue-lashing to D.C. Mayor Vincent Gray Thursday over repeated delays to the renovation of a Northwest elementary school. But Gray disagrees with her analysis.

Hearst Elementary was due to be upgraded this fall, but its modernization was delayed until January 2013. Then, Cheh says, she was told the work would be done in two years, before Gray informed her Wednesday night that no timeline for funding or rebuilding the school even exists.
