Due to a possible gas leak at a building in the area surrounding the Wilson Building, electricity has been cut to a number of buildings, including ours. Traffic in the area is also disrupted.

Big news! Schools Without Walls just ranked #5 out of 27,000 high schools in the US.
We’re proud of the progress happening across DC Public Schools, and a very special shout-out to our Walls Penguins. 🐧
What a great way to head into the new school year. usnews.com/education/best-hi…

I misunderstood Tom’s question and I now realize I answered it incorrectly. I have made no decisions about next year’s committees.
Woah! A bit offhand but it sounds like @ChmnMendelson also just said on The Politics Hour that he plans to revive the council's education committee.
He's kept education under his Committee of the Whole for years, much to the chagrin of advocates, so this would be a big shift.
