Rich School / Poor School

To a different Mark:

In PLSD, there are no rich and there are no poor. That is why so many of us chose to live here and call this area home. In fact, according to the Ohio Department of Education, our ranking in terms of medium income is substantially higher than our average income ranking ... proof that there really is no rich or poor in this community. (We rank 11th out of 612 school districts in terms of medium income)

In terms of the board decision, it does balance between Central and North the four areas with a bit higher priced homes ...
1. Jefferson Farms-Central
2. Allen Road - Central
3. Glenshire - North
4. Winding Creek - North

And, the apartments north of Tussing Road with younger families and a bit lower income are all going to North.

So, a different Mark, which school were you referring to when you asked about my son going to the rich school? I guess my direct answer is no, he isn't.

In addition, several in my neighborhood favor 5A, as well as many of the other 13 different plans. The only thing that unites my neighborhood is support for our schools and our investment in our children's education. I am proud to say that once again my neighborhood led the district in terms of approval of the recent levy ... by an 82% to 18% margin.

We are all one community. Let's support the equal and expanded opportunities for our children that have been created by this decision. Let's unite and move forward for their sake.

Dear Sara Rose,

I think the ?“builder crazy?” City Council has found the answer to you and your rural neighbor?’s dilemma. It appears that this community?’s savior builder Bill Fannin will be the salvation to your boundary problem. The Street of Dreams is coming to your backyards. Of course those homes won?’t have success selling off quickly with the air if displeasure in not attending the ?“right?” school. Therefore the School Board will have to do an about face and change the boundaries to bend over to the developer?’s desires.

Looking forward, I?’m sure that the developer won?’t have the same problems of inundate the surrounds with storm water problems, traffic problems and the like. By the law of averages they have to get at least one subdivision right sometime. Also, the rest of the City?’s standard housing density standards won?’t be too bad. Tiny lots will fit right in with your area?’s future.
