Anger at plan to demolish landslide risk school
Residents in the small town of Maplewood are up in arms over plans to demolish the local elementary school, deemed at risk of landslides.
The school, which has been a pillar of the community for decades, has recently been classified as high risk due to its location on a steep hillside prone to landslides. The local government has decided that the best course of action is to demolish the school and relocate the students to a new, safer location.
However, residents are furious at the decision, arguing that the school is a vital part of the town’s identity and history. Many feel that the risk of landslides is overstated and that the school could be reinforced to make it safer for students.
A protest is being organized to try and save the school from demolition, with many residents vowing to fight the decision tooth and nail.
