new school get another new lawn or sprinklers ...
I want to see my school fixed."
Archbold, a Las Palmas Elementary School mother, hasn't seen parents' patience with CUSD pay off as kids are ultimately not the No. 1 priority. In terms of the district's new administration building, Archbold sees the profit and cost benefits of having staff in one building, however, she feels the health and educational impact of an old building on children should come before that need. Archbold said the remodel at Las Palmas is a nice effort, but she wonders why a multipurpose room receives attention when kids won't go into the third bathroom because of the smell.
