What Do You Do With A Schoolfull of Students When the School is Out Sick?

From the BCCT.

That's the $64,000 question our pre K through second grade parents want answered.

Trailers are fun. It's like camping. Come on...you'll get used to it. Think of school being made out of Legos. You can stack and shape them anyway you want. I did. See what Grandview could look like.

The school board has already made the decision: The MHS building is going to be a K-12 school (or K-8 if they can find a nearby farmer). Reiter and Grandview are to be closed. They have too many physical problems. While they have never said that out loud, that's what they are doing.

* They sold back the bond money for $2.5 million dollars. (See defeasement articles.)
* They used a low budget non-inspection inspection report to legitimize their president emperor and his cowboy actions.(See the Hellmann Report articles.)
* They ignored Reiter as long as they could by order of the Emperor.

Here's what they have done so far: They stopped the new school without adequately providing for the existing schools. Even the BCCT agrees.

What they've done is the equivalent of claiming "my dog ate the homework" without even providing the pooch or a gnawed piece of paper as evidence.

The school board has been defined by "I believe..." instead of investigation and reliance on fact. The whole building project was shelved because the Emperor believes that the Philadelphia Roman Catholic archdiocese's building of two high schools were costing too much: I do not believe that we can build a quality K-12 school for $30 million. The Philadelphia Archdiocese plans to build two new high schools in our area, at a size not much larger than our planned school building but at a cost of $65 million each.

What's the reality? Bristol's doing just fine, thank you, building their comparable building for just about the same price promised.

Belief? Or facts gathered from investigation? What runs the Morrisville School District?

I can believe in Elvis or Martians too...

Monday meeting to discuss options for Reiter students
Posted in News on Friday, January 2nd, 2009 at 2:52 pm by Courier Times reporter Manasee Wagh

Morrisville School Board will discuss the future of M.R. Reiter Elementary School and where to house its students this semester during a January 5 meeting. A mid-December furnace explosion in the Reiter boiler room precipitated the school board’s efforts to close the school.

Since then, the school’s more than 250 children have been taking classes in Morrisville Middle/Senior High School, the Morrisville YMCA and Grandview Elementary School.

In the meantime, the district is busy with repairs and cleanup at Reiter, so the board is considering housing students in modular units at Grandview several blocks away.

The meeting will take place at 7 p.m. in the Large Group Instruction Room of the high school at 550 W. Palmer St.
