Rosemount Center, a bilingual preschool and day care, will remain open at its Mount Pleasant location for two more years, the school and its landlord announced.
Demonstrators rallying in support of Rosemount Center arrive at the school after making their way through the Mount Pleasant neighborhood in Northwest Washington earlier this month.
“Rosemount Center and House of Mercy greatly appreciate the outpouring of support from all aspects of the community,” the groups said in the statement.The agreement comes two months after the child-care center told its staff and families that House of Mercy would not extend its lease for another year, forcing the school to shutter in August. For 20 years, the school paid House of Mercy $1 per year in rent., which said it informed Rosemount two years ago that its lease would not be extended.
Vernon Kelley, chairman of the Rosemount Center board, said in an interview Monday that there were instances over the past two years when Rosemount leaders tried to arrange meetings or propose other options to House of Mercy and “it took a while for them to respond.”was shocking to families, some of whom had put their names on waitlists before their children were even born, they said.
