20 million dollars for Granite City schools

I read the notice that Granite City School District is getting 20 million through bonds. Is this to build new facilities? Is it to upgrade curriculum and education for the students to enhance their capabilities? To compete better internationally? US Steel, the largest employer in GC, in process to be bought out by a large company from Japan, for example. Are there any public documents about this?

As I understand it, they can spend it on anything they want. My guess is part of the money will be to add rooms to buildings so they can end attendance centers.

The record is the minutes of a school board meeting.

That flushing sound you hear is the 20 million going down the toilet.

I am optimistic about education in general. These new technology tools open up new teaching opportunities and also for teenagers, young adults, and anyone to set themselves up for prosperity. Developing a website now for the STL area and promoting the future model of education. www.2060.info

They might be removing the gender specific bathrooms to replace then with gender neutral ones.

A real downer. Other countries are taking education seriously. Seems this town is chasing federal grants, and selling assets. Building human capital is the prime driver of economic development and prosperity

It appears so. Although I will not be able to be a part 4 of my grandchildren's life for a long period, I am content in knowing they are receiving top notch education in South Korea.

James, what assets are the school district selling? I keep hearing they have a buyer for Niedringhaus.
