Yeah, OK, thanks. I had originally looked at the wiki page for the school tag, not the landuse page.
Josm tagged them correctly. I guess my problem was with JOSM seeing as 'school' is not on landuse or the amenity submenus, but on the building submenu. So then if I do ever go back and map the buildings on the school ground the renderers or JOSM are not going to have a problem with an area | amenity=school on top of another area | amenity=school? And thanks for the info about the layers. Good to know and I guess I'll go back and get rid of the layer tags. Oh, and since we are talking about layers. The wiki says to draw a river way over areas of river. http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:waterway%3Driverbank Is it OK to leave everything on layer 0 there, too? Thanks again.
