This new building is a major investment in our future. If America is going to succeed as a country, Alexandria’s educational system and so many others like it need to succeed. We need to invest in the physical infrastructure as well as the personnel who make it happen on a daily basis. Thanks, Mark, for this update.
This article is a great summary of a complicated public issue about which I knew nothing. Alexandria should be proud of making it happen. It seems that the public school system is functioning at least reasonably well for its students, unlike other school systems--like Seattle. Seattle's school system is a mess, with horribly limited vision and foresight. The coherent planning Alexandria has embraced is totally lacking. Planning is a tough road, and rarely perfect--but it's essential.

Thanks Mark. Great article on the history of Alexandria’s response to the psurge in the school population.
