Citizens Voice Concerns About Cabell Board of Education Proposal

Citizens are voicing their concerns about the Cabell County Board of Education's proposal to combine students from Enslow Elementary School with Beverly Hills Elementary students for the next school year by sending the Enslow students to the Beverly Hills school. A message sent to us today said (edited):

"On January 20th, 2010, beginning at 5:30 pm in the Cabell County Board of Education (Administrative Office on 5th Avenue in Huntington), a hearing will convene about moving all the Enslow students to Beverly Hills for the next school year. This is not the best move for the students. This move is to show the public that the proposed middle school will be built on a controversial site, whether the public likes it, or not. When will they start caring about the children."

What is your take on the controversy over the proposed site of the planned construction of a new middle school? (Click on "Post Comments" at the end of this posting, and have your say.)
