Gary public schools "Turn ON the lights, the party's over.".........

The Gary public schools are reportedly having a problem with school vandalism. That would be in the twenty buildings that are now standing empty because the district has lost 16000 students since 1990. So they're considering keeping the lights ON in those buildings to discourage the vandals. I wonder if those buildings were remodeled with updated energy efficient lights before they were closed.

Is this the future of unionized urban districts in Indiana? Surely not in Fort Wayne. Surely FWCS board member Steve Corona, who went to school in Gary (the Marion County Correctional Institute's high school has a better ISTEP passing rate than Steve's former high school), won't let that happen here, at least not before I'm gone.
