[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just don't see the need to spend tens of millions of dollars to build a 4th comprehensive high school. Yes we need seats, but no - we don't need an entire campus. People who say "just turn Kenmore into a high school," but ok - where do all those middle school seats go? 6th-8th graders need a dedicated building and curriculum, whereas you can be a bit more flexible with high school students. I like the idea of expanding on the current course: smaller programs spread out in various centers around the County. It's more nimble, and those seats can alleviate overcrowding just as well as ball fields and tennis courts. [/quote] Those smaller programs are much more expensive to run. We don't have the money for the HB that we have. We can't build more like it. We need efficiency and that means one additional comprehensive high school. Put the Kenmore middle school site at the Career Center of VHC site. [/quote]
