Schools Sharing Space: Imagine That!

Even the New York Public Schools can have some good ideas:


Problems? Yes, but possibilities galore for the Charleston County School District. If only someone would think "outside the box." [That's a pun, by the way.]

Well the mystery of the Goodloe sighting was solved in the paper today. Goodloe was here the first weekend in December to be a bridesmaid for Stacy Murray who followed her to Seattle. Good thing Murray wised up and dumped Jerome Heyward

I didn't know this could become a social gossip column. Public figures are by definition convenient targets of public humor. It's OK if we keep it light.

This approach sounds like what must have existed in the old universities of the middle ages. Oxford and Cambridge, even today, are just places. The "real" universities located there are the many different colleges within. Of course, the "schools" (collages) at Oxford or Cambridge also have separate buildings on the same campus.

But, the question still isn't answered as to why they are closing schools after dumping several million into them and why are they still spending the capitol improvement funds. They could have left the children at Archer which fits them and built a new school for the Charter School. Oh, I know, the board lies. They say they support charter schools when they already knew of the plan to throw the Math and Science school out

Walter Rhett makes an interesting observation on this mornings P&C comments. It's under Diette's story on how the school board is reacting to public fury toward McGinley's plan. He points out that Arthur Ravenel is calling McGinley and CCSD's bluff. He says they are crying wolf about the state not picking up some of the tab because of sales tax shortfall. He points out that the state has no choice but to make up the difference according to the law. Asside from certain cuts that can be forced by the governor or the legislature, this isn't one of them. What else is CCSD and McGinley not being honest about?

Thanks to Walter Rhett for making more evident what everybody's favorite cousin was trying to point out.
