Milwaukee Public Schools blocks sale of unused school property to choice schools.
FReep Mail me if you want on, or off, this Wisconsin interest ping list.
Same thing went on here. The Atlanta public school system refused to sell empty, idle, useless buildings to charter schools until forced to do so by the courts.
We live in a small community 30 miles SE of Buffalo, NY and as the population has declined they decided to reduce the number of schools from 3 to 2 but retain the newest school building for the administration. It has the ONLY swimming pool (quite nice and rather new), large soccer/football field and the latest state of the art classroom, food serving, shop facilities.
This building is now 95% empty except for the district elite.
Middle school kids now go to a former elementary style school building where everything of course is too small.
The reason to cram bigger middle school students into tiny town,.... the urinals were too tall for elementary students.
I could have fixed that in a weekend.
I would expect no less from that failing county/community; choking to death under Democrat control!
So GLAD we left in 1970!
