Only in Rhode Island would someone attempt to make the desperate claim that, 'Since a high school 25 miles away has X students, we should also have X students.' The more I read these bizarre arguments against school consolidation, the more I'm convinced that many posters have never lived outside RI, and probably never outside Warwick. The fact is this: No one can make an economic claim to retain three public high schools in Warwick, which should have become two high schools five years ago. Warwick is a microcosm of the economic condition of the state. If you have a problem with that (and you should) kindly contact your state legislator. If you disagree, name another public high school in New England that has closed in the last twenty years due to declining enrollment.
