Magnet School in Simi Valley
- Share via
* Restructuring the Simi Valley school district will cost close to, if not over, $1 million. Also, it is no secret these campuses are already overcrowded. We need to ask about safety and how these students will be accommodated. Will we have sufficient restrooms, drinking fountains, lunch areas?
The concept of a magnet school is a dream idea. Currently, the plan will benefit 600 to 800 students in our district. The district has earmarked $100,000 for the technology needed at the new school. I would support magnet classes on every campus to benefit all students, but I cannot support one campus that benefits so few. I cannot believe that this district can make the continual commitment to fund these programs.
It is never too late to stop a disaster. We as the community have the final say in what we want for our schools.
