too bad Mr. Danny Colgan didn't have any guts to take a stand 10 years ago when he sold his ridiculous proposal by adding an addition to each and every school. When talk first happened regarding the closing of Neely School, opposition mounted, Colgan balked and didn't take the stand for what would have been the right thing to do 10 years ago.

And now, our current administration is trying to deal with that short-sightedness, and are being hindered by the actions of administrators who are no longer in decision-making positions.

We should have been doing this 10 years ago when instead we built onto all of our schools that in reality may have already outlived their usefulnees.

Thanks Dan Colgan, for your vision and leadership and leaving this administration to deal with the mess you left us.

However with that said, no reason to put us behind the 8-ball even farther, it's time to start thinking about the future of our children's education now, regardless of the bad decisions made in the past.
