I pretty sure there is alot of physical paperwork that I don't understand, but how can you have a community with no schools. Not just an elementary, there's no middle or high school. I am for the best intrest for the students, but I think the BIG WIGS need to think about the children outside the box. this will take a toll on the students in the long run, then what? when the teachers realizes, or probably already know that the adequate teacher to student time needed, will not be proficient, and start to see that most student will have to attend summer school, then what? All the money that is about to be used towards the other schools, apply some to century. If for some reason, the other schools beagn to fail, then what? I really think some more thoughts and feelings can be put into the situation,before making this DRASTIC DECISION. everybody’s saying it’s the best intrest of the students, but at the same time not realizing that the children are going to have to get up alot earlier to prepare themselves for the day, and by the time the children make numerous bus stops, they’re going to be too tired to focus on work.
