Shame' on the state'
To the editor: For a few years now my energy has been devoted to writing as a public advocate in an effort to improve most of the issues we are all faced with by hoping the “trickle up” effect would inspire local leaders and even state leaders to seek legislation to improve all our lives. The issue of a high school sorely needed in Greenwood Lake has had three school superintendents spending their valuable time competing or at least working to accept their responsibility to educate about 300 students of Greenwood Lake. In my judgment, this is the shame of New York State Board of Education. The issue became a debate between three communities where as, in my judgement, our electorate in Warwick and those in Greenwwod Lake and Tuxedo together should be demanding state support for the high school needed in Green-wood Lake. I suggest the leadership in all three communities press the state Legislature wherever necessary to make a Greenwood Lake high school the priority it should have been the past 25 years. John A.
