Vocational Village be attended to.
A new challenge arrived when
news of the relocation reached Meek
neighbors and the C oncordia
Neighborhood A ssociation that
represents them.
C oncordia had three issues:
Concerns that teenagers from else­
where would come through their
neighborhood “with their cars,
drugs and booze,” as one person
put it; the likelihood Meek would
never again be a local school; and
a lack of public input.
Despite this, the school district
and Concordia reached an accom­
modation.
“They were a very articulate,
politically savvy and reasonable
group of people,” Morrison said.
“They tried really hard not to take
out their anger with the district on
our kids,” M cSw iggen added.
Concordia Chair Nancy Hendricks
asked hard questions and pushed
for conditions.
Today, Morrison said, she is
sometimes asked if the Meek build­
ing is being used, so small is the
neighborhood impact.
Student Michael Armstrong said
that the Project Citizen class was
“more powerful because it was a
real experience.”
McSwiggen said her students
found that they could go up and
ask serious questions of important
people.
