To my knowledge, it has been facing issues for many years due to poor construction. Also, does Breed have any shop classrooms still in operation? The new Marshall has several new ones and my guess is the new schools will too. Therefore, students who attend the new schools will have more educational opportunities than those attending Breed. City and school leaders talk about charters being separate and unequal. Well LPS already has a separate and unequal education system and it sounds like it will be getting worse. Also, the capacity for the new Marshall is 1100, not 1200, which is also worse for the overcrowding issue.

The enrollment at Marshall is already near that figure, perhaps more this year. These two new schools will have capacities of 652 and 1008. Breed's enrollment is already over 1200 and Pickering's is over 600. Therefore, there are already close to 3,000 students (perhaps more this school year) attending middle school in Lynn in overcrowded classrooms and schools and the total capacity for these 3 new schools is only 2860. It looks like Lynn will not be resolving the overcrowded issue and students will still continue to be cramped in overcrowded classrooms and schools. They will just be new ones that could cost taxpayers close to $100 million.Lorinoreply@blogger.com
