[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly, the idea of schools operating in shifts is so ridiculous on its face that I can't imagine APS seriously thinks it is an option.  I think they are just laying the cards on the table: this is how many students we think we are going to have. This is the only way we are going to be able to house them unless we build more schools. They've got to be hoping that laying out the worst case scenario will be galvanizing.

Well, I feel galvanized but I'm not sure what to do about it. What's the best way to effect change here? It seems obvious to me that the only way forward is to build a new high school on the VH land, and take back some of the old schools (now community centers) to expand elementary/middle school capacity. How can we make these things happen?[/quote]

Another poster here who totally agrees with this.  What is the best way to make this happen?  Also, I agree with poster below who says we should scrap HB.  It's ridiculous to support such an expensive project that will benefit so few students.  We need to solve the over capacity issue at all the public schools before throwing that much money at so few students.[/quote]
