[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is all so freaking nuts.  We do NOT need all these 'new programs.'  Have there been a huge clamoring for IB in elementary or middle schools?  Or is it for people who wish to 'escape' their currently zoned crappy elementary school?  same for montesorri, where is all this co-called demand?  They should do an actual survey of families with a robust sample size before going down all these rabbit holes.  I think the majority of parents want a traditional elementary school with adequate space in schools and fields.  The SB needs to focus on an adequate HS.  Even if my kids are in an overcrowded neighborhood ES, I do not want them facing the prospect of going to a HS with 3000 plus kids or a satellite locations of 1300 elsewhere.[/quote]

Also, stop spending all this extra money on stupid things.  NEWS FLASH, you don't need state of the art design for the new HB woodlawn.  How about a normal, safe building designed by cost efficient architects?  Also, why did they spend all this extra money on a stupid slide for Discovery and then tell other N. Arlington elementary schools they can't have [b]a much needed media center[/b]?  It's clear that the SB and the APS admin really SUCK at numbers.  How about hiring an outside consultant who has to actually control spending so other projects are not sacrified?  How about a group that actually knows how to do math correctly?[/quote]

One person's "much-needed media center" is another person's "other form of stupid crap."[/quote]
