A few weeks ago I published an article called “Six Pools in Three Schools”. In the article I stated that the pool at the 12th high school wasn’t one pool, but rather two, that the pool complex had been characterized as already decided by county officials, and that the designs for the 13th and 14th high schools would also include pools.
Since then the school division has posted a presentation on the “two pool aquatics complex” at the 12th high school that will be given to the school board on June 5th. School division staff have reportedly stated that the designs for the two-pool aquatics complex at the 12th high school were prepared a few weeks ago.
Two school board members, Gil Trenum and Chairman Milt Johns, stated in public session that they were not aware of any plans to build pools in the 13th and 14th high schools. I have been told that Superintendent Walts has assured the school board and staff that the school division has no plans or thoughts of providing pools in the 13th and 14th high schools, and that the first he or anyone with the school division had heard of the possibility of pools in the 13th and 14th high schools was when my article was posted.
I still have a few questions.
