Wow!!

Something very interesting just happened in my personal message inbox.

I was PMing another board member and I had 7 messages...and then 3 just disappeared without any action from me??? Anyone??? Anyone??

Harry,

I Pm'd you... did you get it? I don't think so from what I can tell, although I'm not sure... Post on the regular board if you didn't.

Can't tell if you got it or not. It appears as if you didn't read my PM to me. But, I don't know. I'm not a moderator and can't tell.

Nothing major...

did you get my answer???

someone did!!

You really need to work on your math. The referendum was pass 20 months ago. It will be 2 years this April not 3 years.

2008-2006 = 2

You really need to work on your reading skills. It will take 3 years from today 12/07 to procure land and build our mega high school.

But thanks for your misguided slam ;D

If they signed on BB tomorrow - then the school could be open in 18 months -

Macy: OK. In my day they were tator tots:)

That, as you so know, is not an option...otherwise they will only have money left over from the land price debaucle to erect a 1000 seat mini////whatever you would call it..

The SB blew it, we don't own land today, it will be 3 years before we build and fill a 3000 seat comprehensive hs that is not needed

[blankcheck]

Why have we not heard one word about this whole mess?

[bob]

Harry, are you saying it will be 3 years til the Sd breaks ground or 3 years until it open?

I don't know that that option is closed - do you ? What are your sources for the complete closure of BB ? Please share this inisght with us less knowledgeable.

You can slam the SB all you want - that is your freedom to do so - but OE started construction in a matter of months after land started movement - and they started their school in December or January ( would have to double check ) - so the fact remains 3 years in still incorrect - and the proof sits on Ogden avenue.

Were there comments that the school was not built very well (OE)?

opens and I mean opens with any or all classes....

Again


this thread is about the HORRIFIC overcrowded situation in dist 204 that prompted a successful well over 124.6M referendum finally passed in 06 and yet as we sit here today on 12/02/07

THERE ARE NO SCHOOLS THAT ARE OVERCROWDED THAT HAVEN'T BEEN FIXED BY TRAILERS

I ask again with the district on the decline,,,why we can, in good conscience, go forward with anything related to a 3rd mega school that we cannot fill??

If we can fill it,,,,,prove it with the current curriculum

I understand ( and sources differ on this one as usual ) they had some minor issues - not sure if one could conclude because of the timeframe though ) - also Plainfield East being build in the same timeframe.

Do you know for a fact the the Sb wants to perform hari kari by purchasing BB, which is overpriced and then build a 3000 seat hs that we can't fill?? Please share this insight with us less knowledgeable.

Oe .... construction started in a matter of months?

Do share the accurate timeline of OE

The farcical projections in enrollment that scared people into throwing money at the not proven wrong enrollment problem

[bob]

There were three projections used for the 2nd referendum.

Do share the accurate timeline of OE

No, you do your own research this time, tired of doing the work for you. I have posted all the info on OE before - either look it up or search the archives. The timeline was on their construction companies website.

asking a question to a question when you can't back up your answer is typical. I never said they were going to do BB for sure -- you did tell us that we already knew BB was closed-- so time to put up some facts rather than rambling. If you can't then BB is still open - that's pretty simple.
