Subject: Proposal...RON BROWN MIDDLE SCHOOL
Good afternoon all:
Please accept the following proposal regarding RON BROWN MIDDLE SCHOOL and
its feeder school Houston Elementary School:
1. RON BROWN MIDDLE SCHOOL must remain open with the following supports in
place:
a. Borrow Ms. Linda Williams/DPR and leverage her expertise in creating
partnerships and that as a former principal to establish a formal partnership with
CAPITOL COLLEGE (Laurel, Maryland).
b. In that same breath, we must leverage Ms. Williams talent to create a partnership
with the FIRST organization to build a fun learning environment in the classroom asearly as kindergarten and through high school.
The FIRST organization had $16,000,000 in scholarship funds available last year and
of that amount, $5,000,000 was left on the table last year.
c. Since Ron Brown is advertised as a Science, Technology, Engineering and Math
( STEM) school, we must be compelled to create a magnet environment where
students from all 8 wards are attracted and welcomed with open arms.
Capitol College currently has 5 students on scholarship from one of the magnet highschools in DCPS and the students are creating such a ripple that Capitol College
wants more DCPS students of that same high caliber.
In order to create that pipeline, our students must be prepared BEFORE high school.
2. Allow Kenilworth ES to remain open so that they remain in the PROMISE
NEIGHBORHOOD INITIATIVE footprint.

In addition, they need to also remain the recreation center for their neighborhood so
that the children continue to have a safe place to recreate in their neighborhood.
Allow THE FISHING SCHOOL to continue their great work so that the childrencontinue to be served.
SMALL SCHOOLS WORK.
NOTE:
Ms. Williams was mentioned without her prior knowledge or consent because she
formerly served as the Ward 7 manager for DPR and did a phenomenal job.
CAPITOL COLLEGE was mentioned because their Admissions Director recently
presented a college program at one of the magnet high schools and shared how
well they care for their students.
In addition , they do a job guarantee when our students complete their courses of
study there and this would create a situation where we could raise our tax base
here in the District by keeping our dollars in the city.
Thanking you in advance for your kind consideration.
We must set up our children for a lifetime of generosity and prosperity; then and
only then will our city reach the pinnacle of abundance that we so richly deserve.
Please continue Ron Brown Middle School's legacy in our community by building a
better school from the inside out.
Dr. Slade has been raising test scores for the past six years, we need to help him
help our students by creating a magnet middle school serving the entire city.
Thank you for keeping Ron Brown open.
WHEN WE BUILD IT, ALL STUDENTS WILL RUN...to Ron Brown Middle School!
