| Poll: Should Schools Be Air-Conditioned? | |
Our school district had half-day closures several times this June, all due to a heat wave that made un-air-conditioned school buildings unbearable. The kids were happy, but there was a fair amount of grumbling among parents: Hey, it was hot when we were kids, too, but we didn't get any days off. Classrooms for kids with special medical needs sometimes get A/C, but tight school budgets make district-wide cooling an item of contention. Should schools be air-conditioned, or should kids have to sweat it out like generations before them? Pick as many answers as you agree with from the poll below.
