I was under the impression that it was just a face-lift. They are only spending 3.5 million so it cant be too much. I have seen asbestos remediation contractors working there the last few summers.

Are your children getting a good education which is preparing them for matriculation to Kings Glen? Yes.
Is Kings Park Elementary School's environment giving them cancer or in any other way compromising their health? No.
Should you STFU? Yes.

Jack Dale loves to close great schools. Better watch what you ask for.

So, there's enough time to come on here and support someone who said they're worried about sending their child to LB but, there's not enough time to provide any illustration of that opinion? I realize your statement was a figure of speech but, as someone who went there long ago, I'm interested in hearing about what's been going on there and how things are different from my experiences there.

The school is political. Nothing is upfront. All about who you know. Kids do not come first. Does that paint picture

Yes, it paints the picture but this is no different than how it was when I was there...

Just cause it has always been this way does not make it right. Most kids leave there disqusted with few real emotional ties
