I saw in the Nov. 25 Saddleback Valley News the article about Capistrano Unified School District’s new high school in San Juan Capistrano. You remember -- the school being built next to the dump. It won’t be ready to open next year. So, guess what? Overcrowding of the present high schools is the plan. Supt. James Fleming blames the delay on "construction equipment" being on the new campus. Also, shame of all shames, the football field will not be ready. I guess football is essential to the Three R's now!
Reading between the lines, I call it another example of an inept administration, namely Dr. Fleming and the current board of trustees. I see, however, that construction on the new administration building is smartly proceeding. The recall cannot start soon enough to depose this misguided administration.
I about dropped to my knees in laughter that they call the new high school a "magnet school.” From my lifetime experiences, dumps are magnets that draw flies, gnats, rats, vermin, methane gas and other toxic fumes. This is yet another example of the total nonsense Dr. Fleming is attempting to feed the community.
