Interesting. As a parent, I really hope RPS gets it together and makes some long overdue changes. Of course, I have no plans to stay here in the city bc of what a disappointment the school system is and has been for far too long, but for others in the future, I hope things make a turn for the better.
What is the rezoning proposal?
