Report: D.C. lacks plan for school buildings

Published March 27, 2013 4:00am ET



The District’s lack of a citywide plan for school buildings has led to conflict between traditional and charter schools and an inefficient use of funds, according to a report Mayor Vincent Gray released Wednesday.

The city has spent nearly $1.5 billion renovating DC Public Schools buildings over the last four years and has completed renovations at 64 schools. DCPS plans to close 13 schools in June and two more at the end of next school year.
