I am pulling up the article now. It will be interesting to watch how this 'spins'.
I have followed practically every link from your website in the past few days, and I must say that I am so stunned and disappointed by what is happening...and not just with South Park. For instance, there seems to be some obsession about ridding the district of portable buildings. I find that amusing, since I began kindergarten in a portable building at Curtis Elementary in *1972*!
Beyond that, I find it fairly reprehensible that so many structures have been allowed to wither and crumble.
I think your discussion (on your website) about the decline of the South Park neighborhood is spot on. The destruction of neighborhood schools is perhaps the greatest factor in that decline. I don't think that the bond can repair that, but I am certainly thankful that you are voicing common sense on the matter.
Waiting and watching,
