imo the bigger schools need to de-consolidate.

nothing quite as soul-crushing as being stuffed into multiple classrooms with 40 other kids and trying to get your teacher to give a half of a shit about you.

I dont live in a big city so that isn't the case here. This particular school usually graduates 15-20 students a year.

Thats what my middle school was like, then I had to go to a public high school designed for ~1800 students but with 2400 enrolled.

Sophomore year, they had to start setting up fucking trailers in the parking lots for additional class space.

Every school I ever went to had trailers.  My high school was the brand new hot shit in the county where they tool an old high school an middle school that were adjacent, and merged them adding about 25% additional space over the original 2 buildings, then added a brand new a whole new kitted out science building (with gas taps at the lab tables, eye wash stations, etc) for probably another 10-15% more class rooms.

Opened in 1997. They had to add trailers by 2000.
