The school department has had a SURPLUS in its budget in the past several years. The last time they claimed to be at a budget deficit, they magically "found" money. A junior high does not need to close to save money. They are closing a junior high because the administration building on Warwick Lake Avenue is falling down and the administration wants to move its offices to a better building, like Gorton. Why not? Then, they can shut down Aldrich, move all the junior high grades to Pilgrim and shuffle the Pilgrim kids around. City council gets prime real estate to sell off in the Aldrich land to the highest bidder at the expense of the kids. But don't worry, as Mr. Mullen stated at the meeting, the teachers will have no trouble delivering the rigorous common core standards to classrooms at capacity and your little angles will most certainly not have been at a disadvantage to pass the standardized test for graduation. Yeah, right.
