What 90 Day Period?

From the BCCT.

If Reiter cannot be closed until April 29, and this vote is on March 25, what 90 day waiting period is there? "Reiter is expected to be sold."

Don't you people see? Just like the big farce of "listening" to the public during the CAP meetings, the board presided over a big play about "listening" to the public and provided a nice pretty document for us all to read while they just do what they want.

"The plan still has to be worked out." Dear Mr. Emperor: Please, pretty please, can you just show us the cover page of the plan? We'll even come down to the accounting emporium to worship you there. Or you can post it on the school website.

How can any of you vote seriously on a half-baked plan and say you're doing your sworn duty?

OK. Yes. You're right. I answered my own question.

Board to vote on restructuring schools

The Morrisville School District could see a restructuring of its schools next year.

The school board will vote next Wednesday on redistributing the district’s roughly 850 students between two of its three buildings.

In the administration’s plan, the current Morrisville Middle/Senior High School would be separated into two parts: an “intermediate school” housing grades four to eight, and a high school for grades nine to 12.

Grades pre-K to three would be housed in Grandview Elementary.

“It’s a better utilization of rooms and teachers, and our funds would be better allocated,” said acting interim Superintendent William Ferrara, who has taken over some of Superintendent Elizabeth Yonson’s duties while she’s on medical leave for the next four to six weeks.

No new construction would be required, he said.

Details on the physical layouts are still being worked out, but grades four to six would be separated from seven and eight, and nine through 12 would also be kept apart, with separate entrances, he added.

The middle/senior high school building currently houses grades six through 12 in separate wings, as well as some younger students who were relocated after a furnace explosion in M.R. Reiter Elementary School in December.

Reiter is expected to be sold and the revenue used for renovation money for the district’s remaining school buildings.

At this point, the school board plans to spend up to $7 million on renovations, said board President William Hellmann.

“I highly recommend (the restructuring plan). It’s a lot more efficient use of space,” he said.

If the board votes in favor of the plan, the changes would become effective July 1.
