The school is going to open on Monday? Really? Not with those fields discussed and based on the pictures, not with internal facilities.

Are they just trying to make a date and figure it out later? Wouldn't it be better to finish the project THEN move in?

What happened to them putting reduced speed limits on OConnor during school hours? What happened to the plans to have no parking signs up during school hours to prevent making kids and bicycles to be in the middle of the road? Where are the (impractical) sharrows that we're going to be painted. Its amazing to me that this is not complete although they built an almost complete school in this time. Talk about poor time management/planning.

Besides the abovious incomplete infrastructure improvements, there is a huge dirt (now mud) pit for the kids to play in. I have no knowledge of the rest of the work inside the school to see if that's ready.
