What is going to happen to Duluth Central?

It seems that Duluth Central High School maybe saved? As many people know the newest school in Duluth is scheduled to be closed under the red plan. Many citizens and community members have voiced concern over this. If central was to stay open it would become a new middle school. It would be the middle school for the western part of town. That makes perfect sense because central is located in the middle of town.

As of now the site is listed on the short list of for possible sites for the middle school. It however does not top the list. It is listed as the second best site, mainly because it is harder to access because of the step hill it is located on said a member of the board that made the presentation to the school board. It also it a bit smaller then one other site.

The fact of the matter is this is all a bunch of BS. I have heard on more then one occasion that the school will be closed and the site will be sold. Not only will it be sold but there could already be a developer and a project planned for it. This latest is just more smoke and mirrors by the district.

The red plan is an outrageous plan that cost far to much. It also closes to many schools and does not accomplish a better education. After all I thought a better education is what our focus was, but is seems like to this school board and administration all they want to is tear the city apart.
