Nobody is disagreeing that northside elementary schools in Lancaster are crowded.
BUT, the original construction plan from the 2004 bond was to build a new elementary school on or near Cedardale Road. If that had happened, we could have kept the old Houston School open and not had such pressures this year.
I don’t know why that fell through; nor do I know who is more to blame, if anybody wants shares of blame. But, I’m sure there was fault on both sides.
Or, the district could have adopted Jeff Melcher’s suggestion, unwieldy as it might have been, of keeping both old and new Houstons open.
