I do not understand why Warwick is wasting money and time restoring such outdated dilapidated buildings. I can appreciate nostalgia and the connection that the old buildings have for the city but lets be real. Chromebooks, smartboard, security systems, football fields, basketball courts, are 10 years too late. Building schools of the future requires a little more innovation. There should have been an economic feasibility study to gage the impact for Warwick residents, businesses, house values and lastly....students success if a state of the art school was built. Lets be honest the schools are structural dumps and the facilities are an embarrassment. Massachusetts began a school rebuilding project 10+ years ago and the results are astonishing! who wants to buy a home in a city where the average class size is 35-38 students. Or the possibility that your child will be bused 30-40mins from home. More importantly, take a look at the inefficient roads and traffic patterns around our schools ... please review the following link http://www.massschoolbuildings.org/image-category/tid/51

for evidence that quality schools can be accomplished. My god this city generates millions of dollars and this the best we can do? Beacon please do a story .....
