Shock and Awe, Cane-Bay-High-School Style

We've got to be more impressive than Wando High School!

At least, I guess that's the purpose of this two-story entrance and court for the new Cane Bay High School. Who knows, maybe it's the same architect.

According to Saturday's P & C the new Berkeley County high school's teachers
"demonstrated excitement and awe as they walked under a canopied entrance designed with seven archways.

"They then viewed the two-floor common area, which serves at the school's central gathering place and leads to the cafeteria, auditorium and media center."

Has anyone inquired why so much space needs to be wasted? What does BCSD think it's building--a cathedral?

Your tax dollars at work.

That doesnt look like any school I have ever seen before.

Architects and their egos certainly run amuck, especially when they are left unchecked to spend OPM (other people's money) with little regard for quality materials or sustainable designs. In 30 years most of this building (and a lot of others like it) will become land fill.

I think the school is beautiful. And as a parent who will have a child going to Cane Bay, I want him to be at a nice, safe place to get his education. Children spend most of there day at school, so why wouldn't you want it to be nice. I pay taxes and I want to see my money go to good use. Well done Cane Bay.
