[quote=Anonymous]If the Wakefield campus is really 37 acres (three times the proposed CC campus) and already has a pool and other amenities, instead of a trailer farm there, why not build another high school facility on that campus - pulling in more planning units and rebalancing the demographics in that school?  The CC seats can be grown into an enhanced STEM/Arl Tech magnet program.  As a smaller school it could have a field where the current enormous parking lot is (with parking built underneath).  The SB's original plan was to put all 1300 seats at WL and turn it into a 3500 seat school, so they have considered something like this before.  I guess that would make 2200 seats at Yorktown, 2800 at WL (with 600 seats at the Ed Center), 1300-ish at CC, 700 at HB (make them all HS seats), and what would that leave - 3000 needed at Wakefield (with a nice new building - maybe a performing/visual arts program?).  Seems like a cheaper prospect and we wouldn't lose an elementary school in the process.[/quote]
