[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]

The TWO multi level indoor-outdoor cafeterias with flex bleacher seating as well near rising up to ping pong and foosball table overviews? Or maybe you were looking at two of their auxiliary gyms which are larger than many high school gyms but the main gym is an enormous light filled space with bleachers. What exactly are they going to renovate? The large modern clean weight room? The Olympic sized pool? Scientific vent hoods you only see in colleges? 4 robotics labs? Ceramics labs and soundproof music rooms? I mean sorry, other than taking away some signs with Arabic I’m not sure what to renovate. Maybe some of the pods they did not show us had smaller desks and chairs but I think they can solve that.  The library - I’ll be honest, who cares? Who uses a physical library anymore? Are we worried the card catalog won’t fit? Can’t get the whole Dewey decimal display up? The library should be a computer and a kindle. Done. [/quote]

Wow, you clearly no absolutely nothing about schools!! [/quote]
LOL, KNOW nothing. Stupid typo.[/quote]
