The board approved the opening of a new school at that location to house the combined student populations of De Vargas and Capshaw Middle School, now on Zia Road, both of which are dealing with declining enrollment. That move will also allow the Mandela International Magnet School, housed in a wing of De Vargas, to relocate and expand. The board has not yet decided where to relocate Mandela.

you just know that some school board members Primo owns a construction company and has big plans for the "new school" there will be bids but the contractor is already picked. This is how things work out here.
The city is fucking dumb. They have no ideas for a reasonable meaningful direction to take the city. they don't want business but they want tax money as much as they can get, they don't know how to cut back on the atrocious over spending and insane size of lazy city employee work force only to just keep adding more people and when that doesn't work, hire some more.
Now they want to do this stupid "sugar drink tax" 2c on every oz of "sugar drink" so they can run some kind of pre-k system... we all know how sin taxes work in the end (less money over all) and knowing this city not a dime will end up where it was supposed to,
to top it off they're thieves... if your on city water, I suggest you pay close attention to your water bill because those rat bastards are known to "estimate" water usage, always to their advantage by quite a bit.
