I'm also not a fan of the breaking up of the larger high schools into smaller high schools (three schools in the same building, with the same principal), but I am a teacher in a large high school, so I'm quite biased. <br /><br />Check out this link for someone who reflects what you've said: <br />http://tinyurl.com/d376ggBestViewInBrooklynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00020026181975097401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6488423742663364242.post-49541458815427359582009-04-21T12:43:00.000-04:002009-04-21T12:43:00.000-04:00Had it been the Upper East Side fighting for over ...Had it been the Upper East Side fighting for over 30 years for a public high school in there district, never in a million years would the Mayor, the City Council person and/or the Department of Education agree to steal 1/2 of the new seats for a Charter junior high school!<br />The DOE says it will be a temporary situation? This Charter school has NO existing lease nor firm prospects for space. The school will move in two years? Where to? First in Fort Greene, now Sunset Park...Gowanus? <br />This is a horrific example of the privatization of our public school system. This time it will be high school students paying the price.<br /><br />Ivette CabreraAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
