[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How big is the VHC site?  Could they put fields at Kenmore but the classrooms there?

Or is this Career Center or nothing?  I know that nice big plot at Kenmore is untouchable for a high school building but something has to be built there. [/quote]

There is a middle school and elementary school already at that site.[/quote]

The elementary school sits on four acres of its own.  The middle school sits on well over 30 acres.  The Career center site is 12 acres.  Yorktown sits on 11+ acres (plus the adjacent Greenbrier Park facilities).  TJMS/Community Center and the new elementary school sit on 12 acres (plus the 15 acres of adjacent parkland/facilities for a total of 27 acres).

That's 2000 students on Yorktown's 11 acres; 1750 elementary and middle school students on 12 acres at TJ; up to 4,000 students being considered for the Career Center's 12 acres; and  a mere 1000-ish students on 32 plus acres at Kenmore (not counting Carlin Springs students and their four acres).

So, you are suggesting that we can't put a high school or anything else on 36+ acres of land because there is already a middle school and an elementary school (which are separated by about 30 acres)?!?!?[/quote]

Yes. That is what the SB and CB are saying. Welcome to the conversation. Now move on.[/quote]

No, that's what you and the rest of your selfish neighbors are saying.  Time for YOU to move on.[/quote]
