Not very neighborly
We learned last week that the legal effort to overturn denial of a use permit for the L. Hollingworth School for the Talented and Gifted to expand its pre-K program in one Toledo neighborhood came to naught. Thus the mood for school staff and families is decidedly downbeat this year. Even worse: their “neighbors”, who were instrumental in the way the permit process ultimately played out, decided to double down on their antipathy toward the school. Superintendent Terrence Franklin tells 13 ABC News, “They found it funny that we now own property that we’re not able to expand our property on. That was the big joke in the neighborhood.” Disgusting, but not at all surprising.
