They wanted to build another school there. HB didn't want to go there. You are rewriting history. [/quote]

Not rewriting history - they wanted to put a middle school there. This conversation is about putting a HS there - an age group where kids are more likely to take advantage of the urban setting/transportation options.[/quote]

If it didn't work for a middle school it's even less appropriate for a high school, which requires more space for fields/sports and ideally should be closer in size to the existing schools so they can offer similar activities.  So we're back to a smaller site that's more appropriate for a choice program.   The only objection is that the choice program is really popular and should be bigger.[/quote]

Sounds like that is exactly what the PP stated - the site is not appropriate for a traditional HS which requires open field space.  It is a great spot for a non-traditional HS which doesn’t require open field space but is willing to accomodate more than a few hundred students.  It is a great spot for a program like HB - I think many people agree with that. [/quote]
