DCPS says list of school closings is phony

A list circulating on neighborhood listservs of D.C. public schools purported to be closing is “inaccurate,” a school system spokeswoman said Thursday evening.

“This list is inaccurate. We are a little savvier than to close a school like Cardozo that we are currently building,” said D.C. Public Schools spokeswoman Melissa Salmanowitz. “We will have an announcement soon of which schools we are proposing to close for the 2013-2014 school year.”
