Attended tonight's public hearing regarding the budget cuts for the schools. There was a young gentlemen that addressed the board that wants to open a private Christian school that expressed great interest in purchasing the former Pine Elementary property, the school board was more than willing to want to sell it to him.

That is smart planning by MCAS. The last thing they need to do is subsidize the competition. Remember we are talking in the area of $6500 in revenue lost PER KID, PER YEAR for students that go elsewhere.

The problem is MCAS has four unused school bulidings, old Pine, Mullen, Niemann and Elston (to a certain extent). If another school is not going to buy them then who will?

The Christian school is better off not buying the old Pine Elementary anyways. They should seek to get a vacant piece of land within the city limits where water and sewerr are provided instead of well and septic and construct a new building to their own needs and specification. The former Memorial Hospital property would be ideal.

They won't buy that land. The City owns it and wants a real development there.
