Wise County-Modern Education

The KTN has an article about our schools here in Wise County. It addresses some school construction including class rooms and gyms. It also contains something that has always amazed me since it started: Heat Schedule. This means it is hot and kids and teachers get to go home early. There was no such thing when I was in school. We had class no matter how hot. I remember taking summer school in 82' I think, with Bear Man at JJ Kelly. No fans allowed! Has it really came to this? Are the kids that soft that it gets to hot to learn? Does this prepare them for the real working world? I think not. I had to go to school when it was hot, all day. My parents did too. You see they walked 5 miles up hill both ways to get there and back. Heat Schedule....Geeez.
