Hot Schools, Closed Libraries
* Re “Cool Supplies,” Sept. 15.
It seems to me that something is wrong when I read that our children must go to school in extremely hot weather without air-conditioning in the schools and they are expected to excel.
The libraries are closed four nights a week at 5:30 p.m. and two mornings they open at noon. Wouldn’t you think the library should be open in the evening for parents to take their children after work and, of course, in the morning for seniors?
It seems something is wrong when large corporations like Nike are paying millions to athletes and our schools lack air-conditioning and libraries are unable to stay open.
