Dialogue with Councilmember David Catania

Tuesday, November 19 at 7:30 p.m.
Chevy Chase Community Center
5601 Connecticut Avenue, NW

The Chevy Chase Citizens Association and the Lafayette HSA are co-sponsoring a meeting featuring a discussion about Education in DC with At-large DC Councilmember David Catania, chair of the council’s Education Committee.  Community members will have the opportunity to hear from and ask questions of Councilmember Catania about education issues that impact the Chevy Chase community, such as the Deputy Mayor of Education Abigail Smith’s initiative to review and recommend any changes to DC Public Schools’ student assignment and school boundary policies and practices, including the feeder relationships between schools, such as Lafayette’s with Deal Middle School, student and school achievement measurements, a unified lottery for enrollment at traditional and charter schools, and college tuition assistance.  All are welcome to attend. Light refreshments will be served. Attendees are encouraged to bring non-perishable food items to contribute to the Community Center’s food drive to benefit the Capital Area Food Bank. We hope you can join us for this important event to learn about and share your views on education issues in DC.
