[quote=Anonymous]There is activity by a group trying to push this forward, however, they are set on trying to get the Shaw Middle School at the Banneker site. The reason being that they want this done ASAP (like to start next school year, or possibly the year after since it's probably too late for next year). I think this is short-sighted. That location is way too far away for many of the feeder schools, and not in the best neighborhood- that's not going to attract the UMC families that are starting to stay beyond 2nd grade and encourage them to stay through middle. There are several other locations that would be better. I was just thinking yesterday, they should have combined Seaton and Garrison into one of the two buildings, and made the other one a middle school (would need to add floors, obviously). The schools are so close together and central to the feeder schools.[/quote]
