[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have doubts that they are going to lie to the entire inaugural population of the school.  They said the model will be interdisciplinary learning with integration of traditional subjects and special pathways and had a sample pod set up to show what they meant.  They are adapting to the space - they aren't going to gut the entire school to make a rows and rows of square classrooms, they are going to adapt the model to the facilities. I honestly saw very little that will need to be renovated.  I think they will size classes to fit the spaces.  Based on the turnout - I think they are going to have plenty of opts in and no one will be disrupted who doesn't want to be.  The only ones they may lose are the sports-centric kids.[/quote]

Then you didn't see the cafeteria(s) or library, did you? Or the gym without high school sized bleachers. [/quote]

Or the lack of locker space

Or the classrooms that can't fit 30 people. It's no where near fitting 1000 students as is. That will require additoinal buildings or turning 1 of the 3 gyms into classroom space. I can see this project balooning out of control cost wise.[/quote]

NP. I don't believe the school will open in the Fall. [/quote]

Only way school opens in the fall is if the intent is to have a magnet school.  [/quote]
