Ummm.... are you somehow trying to relate the age of a school to how well it does acedemically??
Then I don't understand your logic.... Just look at 1928 built Grosse Pointe South High School.
20% of Finney was built in the 1920s as a grade school.... 40% was built in the 1960s when the high school was conceived. Then another 40% was added onto in the 1970s [[including the auditorium and gymnasium). What is the purpose of tearing down a 35 year old auditorium and gym?? A damn big waste of scarce DPS money if you ask me. But then the DPS was never known for being financially responsible.... is my point starting to make sense to you now???
They could have torn down the older 60% of the school and just rebuilt that part, rather than demo'ed the entire thing. ALL of Denby is older than Finney... why is that school still standing?
Just because a newer school is built... is totally separate from making teachers and parents more caring. When a new school is built... it doesn't have a cause and effect to make any part of the parents/students or teachers any better.
