The phantom 800 empty classrooms make yet another appearance. This time there is even a picture of an empty classroom to falsely lend credence to the inaccuracy.
http://pulsetc.com/article.php?sid=1634 The otherwise generally good article about the hard work of the Wenonah and Keewaydin parents that paid off contains the often repeated but factually inaccurate statement that "district administrators are looking at 800 empty classrooms this year." Kevin Halbach has said that number is not accurate for this year. I wish reporters would quit repeating stuff that was never substantiated and has been since declared inaccurate by the district's consultants. Real numbers and solidly substantiated projections will serve everyone much better. Dan McGuire Ericsson REMINDERS: 1. Be civil! Please read the NEW RULES at http://www.e-democracy.org/rules.
