Enough with this craziness. The Columbia Center is closed; population growth alone warrants a school in Savoy, plus it was a condition of the sales tax referendum; and the plaintiffs must not have been doing a great job of "enforcing and monitoring" if there are still this many alleged problems.
Put this nonsense to an end and get back to educating students. Tons of money that could have been used to improve and expand buildings have been largely wasted on this poorly conceived effort.

I used to live in Savoy and thought it was so sad how there was no school there for the kids. I think it is time to build a school there. Older residents told me there used to be a school there and it is the head start program now there in the old school building. I think it is time the tax paying families get a school there, I am glad I am not longer living there though as these kinds of things got me so angry . Makes no sense. Craziness is right.
