Reader wants overcrowding options explored

| February 1, 2013 5:00 AM

I don't think our community understands what is going on in our school district. I attended a meeting last week where the overcrowding issue in our schools was discussed. I was shocked to discover that only two options were being offered or discussed. Option 1- Year round School. Option 2- 11 period day for high school. Both options are unacceptable. I could go on and on about why these two options won't work, but the bottom line is they are awful. Why aren't we talking about a more reasonable solution to our overcrowding issue? I found that the school district was resistant to discuss any other ideas or options than the two I just listed for you. When we tried to share other options, we were shut down at the meeting.
