Living near this school has been so nice for our family and many other in the area. We enjoy the space for the quiet it brings to the neighborhood and for the kids to have a place to play. We have enjoyed a space like this to meet neighbors and friends and get to know people in the community. The yards here are very small around the school, it has been a huge benefit to have the play areas and open spaces at the school. I would want the space to remain open for families, in the form of a park.
