The land has been reserved since our little planned community was established all those years ago. The high schools where our students currently take classes are filling up fast. By 2017, just 4 short years from now, the schools will all be at capacity or exceeding capacity, and that is not even taking into account the multiple new developments in the works. But schools cost A LOT of money! You might be surprised at how much it takes to get a new school, even when one is desperately needed. It turns out that portable classrooms and adding on to existing buildings is a heck of a lot cheaper. Granted, this is obvious, but who wants their kids learning in trailers? Not most people.
Will Crofton High School welcome students anytime soon?
After the community meeting, I know two things: 1) Crofton desperately needs this high school, and 2) Crofton probably won't be getting this high school. Budgets are a complicated matter and even overwhelming needs will be set aside. I plan on staying on this committee so that our community has a fighting chance of getting what it needs.
