But it's not too late for two schools of thought. A new Mount Pleasant high school. And the existing Wando High School. Kids get lost in a huge high school - literally, sometimes. Kids don't get to know the principal, or the librarian, or the yearbook editor.
Smaller schools are safer.
There are more opportunities. More kids get to do more things. With two high schools in Mount Pleasant, twice as many kids get to be in the band, on the debate team, in the Math Bowl, on the newspaper staff, in the student council. And twice as many boys and girls get to play high school sports. The very people who have lobbied for Super Size High because they think it will benefit Mount Pleasant's sports prowess are missing the point.
