[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A Humanities magnet or any other magnet is not something you do when the budget looks so tight.  It doesn’t save any money.

KAA is placed precisely where a new HS has been proposed for decades.  It can solve many issues in the western part of the county. Its cost is far less that a new school or even an expansion of an existing school would cost. Plus, it saves time - it’s here- no need to expand other schools in the area, no need to acquire  land and build. Time also saves money- especially with inflation.

Will it be a perfect solution? Of course not, so that means there will be plenty of things to pick at and try to derail it - if one so chooses.  So, we do not have to worry about not having anything to discuss. [/quote]

So the budget is tight enough that we can’t afford a magnet but not tight enough that we can’t rush into a surprise $150 million new school?

Seems pretty inconsistent if you ask me.[/quote]

No. Not inconsistent. A magnet is a luxury.  A school for local students is a basic need.

🤣🤣🤣. You and the rest of us have a very different definition of “basic need.”

We get you have to try to make a distinction, but that is a sttrrrreeeeeettttcchh.[/quote]
Disagree. Public schools are basic needs. New Western HS has been expected and planned for over a decade. [/quote]
