The feedback from local business owners is loud and clear. We are currently compiling their concerns to present directly to the school board.

The momentum behind this request is undeniable. It is time for the district to acknowledge the community.

That building is a landmark. tearing it down without talking to the town first is just wrong. stop ignoring us.

The school board needs to be transparent. holding a meeting is the bare minimum here.

This is ridiculous. Glenside deserves better than a midnight demolition decision.
