Comments on: OUSD headquarters is out of commission, indefinitely http://www.ibabuzz.com/education/2013/01/15/ousd-headquarters-is-out-of-commission-indefinitely/ Katy Murphy's blog on Oakland schools Thu, 23 May 2013 18:01:11 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.5.1 By: Nomikins http://www.ibabuzz.com/education/2013/01/15/ousd-headquarters-is-out-of-commission-indefinitely/comment-page-1/#comment-66295 Nomikins Thu, 24 Jan 2013 07:48:54 +0000 http://www.ibabuzz.com/education/?p=16192#comment-66295 So the building that was originally meant to house the students of La Escuelita Elementary, paid for by bond funds specifically for the school project, for these youngsters who have been patiently waiting, studying for years in portables, to enjoy their new school… they will now have to share their site with Risk Management (already happening), KDOL (aleady happening), the State Trustee, Superintendent’s Office, Risk Management, Instruction/Operations, Communications, Board Offices and regular Board Meetings? How will this remain a school at all?

How else can they replace that truly awful building? If they do they’ll have to balance it with the academic & facilities needs of the students to make sure they don’t divert too much funds. Esp. if M-J language limits non-academic spending…

So, People who forget their history….are doomed to repeat it…..This building WILL eventually be condemned or said to be too old and expensive to repair…. it will then be sold to a developer who will construct a housing/apt complex on the expensive property. Don Perata has had his eye on this building site for a very long time….
