I have been following updates on the
1922 section of the Annandale Middle School and
was aware that there is a community task force studying
our school facility. So I am pleased to read statements
written in the Advocate or sent to me via e-mail, by
respected and reliable sources, de-bunking the myth that
the building is to be condemned. Tearing down a
three-story brick structure where Wold Architects has
determined the building envelope to be solid does not
make sense to me either. I feel it should continue to be
a school. I also feel like others, that the middle
school helps to create a sense of neighborhood. I work
across the street from the school at the library and I
invite you to come in around 3 p.m. and see for yourself
the kids who have walked across the from the middle
school school and are using the internet stations,
working on school projects at the tables or being able
to sit in comfy chairs to read a book or magazine,
before their ride comes.
