Dear editor,
The basic intent of this letter is to be a reminder that the children, not the building, are, or at least should be, the focal point of the school issue.
Iola’s schools are old and in great need of not only maintenance but complete renovation. As is the case in older homes the same holds true in schools, it costs more to completely renovate than to build new. The people who renovate usually have a passion for restoring the structure to its former glory. The schools restored to their former glory will still not meet the needs of the children of Iola.
