Group Explains Opposition to Angels Gate High School

Community members opposed to construction of a public high school at Angels Gate have outlined their case in the press.

The group has written a commentary for the Coastal San Pedro Neighborhood Council newsletter, Coastal Currents.

Instead of building the Angels Gate campus, the allocated funding “should stay at San Pedro High School to convert the 49 temporary bungalows into ‘green’ state-of-the-art buildings for future generations to carry on the 100-year tradition of San Pedro High,” N.O.I.S.E. opponents argue.

The commentary is the second in a pro-con series. The L.A. school district wrote in favor of the campus in the previous issue of Coastal Currents.

LAUSD has money to burn so to get taxpayers to pay more to them threw bond money so they can buy $13K unused sushi machines and then pay into a Administration with a decreasing enrollment....

Stop LAUSD make another mistake to build a $102.5 million dollar school for 500 magnet student at SRHs#15 at Angel's Gate... this money should be used to fix and better San Pedro High School... no bussed in magnet student!
