Board gets blasted over boundariesTue, 10/24/2006 - 10:43pm
By: John Thompson
More than 300 residents jammed the Willie Duke Auditorium at Starr's Mill Tuesday night and gave the Board of Education an earful about the proposed boundaries for next year. Armed with homemade signs and wearing stickers, the more than 80 speakers blasted the board and school officials for destroying communities while trying to populate Bennett's Mill Middle School next year. Some of the sharpest criticism came from Peachtree City residents who couldn't understand why the board would move a few subdivisions in north Peachtree City to the new middle school in the center of the county. One Booth student drew thunderous applause with his comment on the situation. "I think if I was your teacher, I wouldn't pass you."
