$40 million will be provided to give Hyde Park Academy High School a much needed face lift. No doubt that is welcome news to the school personnel and neighborhood. Nothing wrong with assisting this south side school. Many of the schools in this part of the city having been starving for years.
I wonder why it took this long to make this happen and I'm puzzled as to how CPS could come up with this kind of money given all the recent news about the school system being starved for cash.
This expenditure is part of the nearly $1 billion of capital spending announced this past summer. My, how things have changed in just a few short months. This is not to say that the investment isn't needed. What moved heaven and earth to make all of this possible?
