MAPS 3 provided a spectacular new John Marshall High School building and an equally impressive new U.S. Grant High School building, but one school had news-making student discipline problems when it opened and the other school had teacher problems. Millions of MAPS money is being spent on the Classen School of Advanced Studies building, a national top-10 high school, with the end result that it will serve fewer, not more, students.
Bricks and mortar never educated anyone, but we just keep building anyway! How pathetic.
