New York City may give Hebrew Language Academy space at Intermediate School 278

From The New York Daily News: Parents at a middle school in the Marine Park neighborhood of Brooklyn are fuming over plans to put a charter school in one of three public schools in the area. The New York City Education Department is looking for space in public school buildings after officials from the Hebrew Language Academy vowed they would open the school in a private building. Intermediate School 278 parents are particularly peeved because they wanted to expand the sixth-through-eighth-grade school into a performing arts high school.
