@DTHCityState There will also be a May 12 public hearing during which people can participate in the critical process. @CHCCSPTACouncil @chccs @OrangeCoSchools

[Save Orange Schools @OrangeSave]

@DTHCityState But something for the districts to consider and evaluate for sure.

[Save Orange Schools @OrangeSave]

@DTHCityState It seems like building a new school would depend on getting a large sum of money at one time, if not other @chccs and @OrangeCoSchools repairs would be impossible. Unlikely.
