[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The P.E. teacher does swim units throughout the year where students do use the pool. The parent community was very passionate about keeping the pool. [/quote]

The sensible thing to do would be to get rid of the pool because that building is already got a really bizarre layout that doesn't actually function very well and they could renovate the pool area into more functional space. But emotionally people are very attached to the pool[/quote]

That is a lower income area so its nice to give families access to the pool but its open very limited hours so is it financially worth it?[/quote]

The lower-income community nearby doesn't seem to utilize the current pool. And few, if any of them, showed up for the community meetings about the school/pool, despite extra effort to engage these families.[/quote]

I live near long branch and that pool is well utilized by the community. But that pool is open on weekends in the summer and weeknights until 7. [/quote]
