As we were cruising down the MLK Expressway today, a thought struck. It seems that the county has moved virutally all of their operations out of the Beaumont government center site. Why doesn't the School Board approach the county about locating some of their special school programs in those buildings? Everyone wins...
The county gets a tenant to defray operating costs of the site while they continue to decide whether to make the site available for development.
The school district gets a school site in a location that is appropriate for a school. How do we know? Because...wait for it...it used to be a school.
The city gets a school on the site, and the potential for a neighborhood elementary school in the future.
We bet if the school district and the county got together this month, they could be up and operating at this site by the time fall classes start.
