While I give your opinion more weight due to your experience, Anathema has a right to his too, no matter how unlikely it is he is right..Good for you, being against multiple buildings, but that does not change reality. You cannot put a vocational/technical center in the same building with a high school or you have safety issues. They also serve multiple counties in my state, so you have kids from other schools arriving and departing. Maybe a good dose of reality might bring you back to Earth.
The reality is that both of my parents were teachers and I spent 13 years in a public school system. The prototype school in my mind is the junior high school I attended. It was damn near a concrete bomb shelter built in the 1950s. There were probably 6 exit doors in the entire 4 story building and almost no windows.
I really wish you would learn to think in the here and now. The 1950s was nearly 70 years ago.
I taught in a school built in 1927 and it had been remodeled about every 20 years or so. It was still a deathtrap.
I taught in a school in Florida that had no windows in the classrooms. When the AC failed, the school had to close because the classroom temps went to about 130 degrees.
I have you beat with 33 years in public schools. When were you a school administrator?
