[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does anyone know if that policy was in effect when the lab was built?  It doesn’t seem like policy was followed since the school board didn’t vote on it.  It seems like the principle didn’t follow protocol since she was aware of and assisted the fund raising efforts.[/quote]

The policy was adopted on October 4, 2007, and the lab was built in honor of Noah Simon's wife, who died in 2013.  [/quote]

So if ASFS and APS didn't follow the policy then to install such an expensive lab, then why should the taxpayers now be expected to foot the bill to move it?  If anything, the School Board should vote to limit the moving costs for the lab-- it should get the same amount $$ as it takes to move any other classroom in APS (I think APS budgeted 10 boxes per classroom?).  Or ASFS can fundraise to move it.  Schools should not be allowed to install such expensive frills without any checks and balances and then demand that APS move or recreate such an extravagant frill (especially since the move seems to be motivated, in part, in making the community that built the lab happy by bringing ASFS to their neighborhood).
