High School


Question Posted Thursday August 2 2007, 10:23 pm

Ok, so basically our town's high school sucks. The schooling is good, it's just the building I'm concerned about. God forbid if there was ever a fire, I'm not sure everyone would be able to get out safely! You have to go through some classrooms so get to other classrooms, some rooms are just made up of room dividers, what happens if there's a lockdown and someone's in the building? The people in that "room" are an open target. There aren't too many Exits, some classrooms are outside in these trailor-type things, and it's just an awful place to be! I was wondering if any of you know of a way I possibly could report our school for being a safety hazard? We really!!! need a new HS if you haven't noticed yet. I just don't know how I can help get a new one? There's a lot of old people in our town so they voted down a new HS because they don't want to pay the taxes and don't have kids in school so they don't care. Please help!! Our town needs a good school for learning! Thanks!!

I think you need to notify your town's Fire Marshall. I think it is again code for any room NOT to have two entrances/exits. I know that is the case here in CT. And you are right, many small towns with a lot of senior citizens always vote down budgets that call for new schools. And guess what, there are loads of seniors out there. Getting the PTA or your side would help.
Find out who runs the PTA in your school, (it's a parent organization) See if you can meet with them. See if they will start a campaign. The more involved the better.
I wouldn't bother with the school board. They want more money too, but mostly for salaries, not for new buildings. Good for you to get involved with an issue like this. Your concerns are valid, and the changes that you are asking for are going to save lives. Why do we always wait for a tragedy to happen, before we make needed changes. (By we, I mean adults!). Go for it, girl. And good luck to you.
