Cross Country Elementary Middle School Its History and Future
Since the Cross Country Elementary Middle School (#247) building has been demolished, many neighborhood residents have been asking “Why?” As the Secretary of the Cross Country Improvement Association, I have been involved in the meetings about the rebuilding of the Cross Country Elementary Middle School building since 2016. I have been following the letters to the editor to the Where What When about the new school. After reading the letters and speaking with neighbors who are impacted by the changes, I found that many neighbors were not aware of the process that took place that brought about the changes to the school site. Let’s look at the history of the school as well as plans for its future.
