[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The School Board working session on the CIP last night laid out some plans for the CC site. 
Here’s the doc:

Looks like they want multiple phases - 800 in the first phase, with and additional 1500 in phases 2-4, with one multipurpose field and a gym/theater built during phase 1, and possibly another field and underground parking - eventually, when another CIP comes around.

What do you think about this?  Who is going to send their high school kid to a school with one field that is shared between 4 schools, and a gym/ theater. Sounds crazy.

Middle class families looking to avoid Wakefield. 
You don’t get it. That neighborhood wants the school. It is like the only scenario that actually trumps matching-north-Arlington-t-shirts-wearing-cabals.
Having a civic association actually push to have a high school? The CB and SB will go along to get along.
This neighborhood isn’t stupid. They understand they are getting a school one way or the other. They get fvked if it’s anything but a full 4th school. If they get a bunch of stupid programs, it’s a loss. They get it. They get the 4th school and they now have a high school similar to WL’s demographics and the property value that go along with it. 
It will tank Wakefield,  but so what. It’s a zero sum game. Hold your breath waiting for the progressives of Arlington to do the right thing, and you will turn blue. Take care for your corner, because no one else gives a Fvck.[/quote]

Oh please.  What's the alternative? 3000 student high schools, which were built to hold 1800?  We need a new high school.  Where do you suggest it goes?
