Someone mentioned that here recently, I think, and it was brought up at a JAMS event I attended a while back too. That is, the families who used to leave at middle school for Shoreline either due to the old assignment plan or Eckstein's overcrowding will likely return to/stay in SPS versus going to Shoreline. No idea if FACMAC or others have looked at those numbers. I'd expect the greatest impact to be on JAMS, but maybe WilPac too?!Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07777580098975083499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28765366.post-74860171564920319302014-05-15T13:58:25.600-07:002014-05-15T13:58:25.600-07:00Just checked my e-mail PDR.

Ironically, I think the portable going in at Hale was one of the portables used during Hale's construction (and placed at Eckstein afterwards).<br /><br />Someone at SPS has to be aware of the work being done at Hale on Thornton Creek. I heard at last night's meeting about the Meadowbrook/Thornton Creek project, that apparently SPS is charging SPU a hefty amount ($200,000?) for access/easements through SPS property during the project. This project, BTW is being done, in part, to help mitigate flooding on the Hale campus.<br /><br />- meadowbrook residentAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28765366.post-3121677564869776882014-05-14T14:10:43.123-07:002014-05-14T14:10:43.123-07:00HP (posting this for the third time; can someone ...HP (posting this for the third time; can someone please make sure s(he) sees this comment):<br /><br />Re: Location of Summer 2014 Portable Placement at Nathan Hale HS<br /><br />Please contact Mike Jenkins of our Capital Projects team (252-0558) for information on the location of the portable.Joe Wolfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16747791661117554332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28765366.post-70186602867511262672014-05-14T13:04:24.040-07:002014-05-14T13:04:24.040-07:00Wondering where they are going to put that portabl...Wondering where they are going to put that portable at Hale when there is major work being done on Thorton Creek and the closing of 35th for about a year. Parking lots are already full because they are shared between the high school, the community center and the park area (playground, baseball fields, tennis courts and community garden). Not sure where they can put a portable that will be far enough away from Thorton Creek yet close enough for kids to get to and from between classes.<br /><br />HPAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
