[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Cold Spring is the third best elementary school in the entire state of Maryland. Why would they close that? Cold Spring’s enrollment goes up every year. Also, why would you want to close ANY school? That would make class sizes at the other schools go up. [/quote] Why would closing schools increase class sizes? (It would increase school sizes/utilization rates, but since there's plenty of space to spare that's no problem.) Class sizes are based on the same guidelines no matter the size of your school. And with declining enrollment and a number of elementary schools likely needing to close in the next decade, why should taxpayers be paying tens of millions of dollars to build or renovate new schools when those kids can just be redistricted to neighboring schools with space?[/quote] 💯[/quote]
