(3 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - I can't believe there are still schools like this around! Whatever happened to classrooms? How are the children supposed to concentrate and learn when there are three or more classes of around 20 children each divided behind movable 1/2 wall dividers in one great room? What about free breakfasts in such an obviously low income area? What about healthy alternative lunches (and more variety?) where are all the Library's books? What about teachers per student? Why are there not more teachers aides? And lastly who can use such a small bathroom and why are there not more to handle the number of students attending? If Maryland needs better schools, updated and larger schools(and from what I have seen, they do!. BUILD BETTER SCHOOLS! PS Where are all the special programs for children with learning disabilities and/or handicaps? Schools should be equipped to TEACH not baby sit ALL of our children!
