[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DP. Read the post. Where did it say it’s worse? Two things can be true at the same time. Some of the middle school buildings are in bad shape. But I too have scratched my head over uninformed views of the Heights being some kind of palace. It’s not. It has its issues too. These same HB haters would probably be the first to complain if their kids went there.  It was expensive yes but building a new school these days isn’t cheap and the site was challenging. [/quote]

Please it won a bunch of design awards and environmental kudos; it’s almost brand new.  Compared to Swanson and Williamsburg, it’s ridiculous to complain about cosmetic issues like PP, especially at an OPTION school you don’t have to attend.  [/quote]

Kids don't care about the stacked box design or environmental stuff, they care about whether its too loud to focus on tests because of the echoing hallways and whether they have to carry a backpack full of books up and down five flights of stairs because their locker is on the fifth floor and their classes and the lunchroom are spread across a mid-rise building. Parents care about whether there is anywhere to park for school events (not really, underground lot a block away) and if they have the right spaces and equipment to offer kids a full range of classes.
