Boston proposal calls for relocating 2 high schools
From The Boston Globe: Less than a month after Boston closed the former Hyde Park High School, the city is seeking to reopen the building in fall 2012 as the new home of Boston Latin Academy. It is part of a proposal aimed at increasing capacity at several popular schools. The existing Latin Academy building would undergo renovations and eventually house the Boston Arts Academy, which has been sharing a building with Fenway High School. Splitting those two popular schools would enable both to serve more students. The proposal also calls for expanding the Eliot K-8 School, which has a long waiting list of students, and creating two new in-district charter elementary schools.
