unknown-md: I loved that school and they closed it. all i gotta say is they ripped it down for what? saving a few dollars? what about the future of the students? a kid i know was asking his mom when they could go back to Bloomington beacause kids were hitting and calling him names. These are our future. selfish people will go with the mainstream to save some humiliation, brave people will fight for what they belive in.....
