Every once in a while the issue of school fencing comes up at Policy meetings. The idea is is repulsively inane that it will never survive a budget process until it has an aesthetic inertia that makes a whole lot more sense than what is becoming known as the Hannibal Lecter schoolscape thanks to critics such as James Howard Kunstler.
Here's a great TED lecture on why local control of school spaces is critical (note the Hannibal Lecter school scape most likely legislated by a brain-dead state agency in the name of security or accountability).
This is an unofficial and oftentimes humorous look at my former Region19 Board of Education experience. I will try to stimulate interest and discussion along the way. This is a sandbox of ideas that we'll explore together so feel free to comment.
