Geez, go on vacation for a couple weeks and things get all crazy in the Encinitas school district. I've been gone but read about TIP's closure long distance. We'll see if TIP administration fights the decision, but it is looking like everyone is moving forward. That includes the Hazelton's who have filed for a fictitious business name for The Academy North County. Two school board seats are open and, up until early this week, had only two candidates running, incumbent, Carol Skiljan and Mary Page. Now, however, it will be a race as Maureen 'Mo' Muir filed her paperwork just before Thursday's extended deadline. With TIP closed, now the big news will be what is going to happen with the Pacific View property. City council candidate Bob Nanninga is calling for an open dialogue and public vote on what the district should do with the property. Anticipate the word of the 2008/2009 school year being 'Naylor Act'. The city and school district thought this was a done deal, until someone brought up the Naylor Act. It's a prime piece of real estate and the Naylor Act sound a lot like 'eminent domain'. That property could fund quite a few art projects and hopefully both the school district, the city and the Pacific View neighbors will all win in this situation. Be careful, though, or Lean King might just build a new district office on the spot with his corner office offering a panoramic view of the pacific. I can't believe summer is over and don't know who is less ready for the new school year, me or the kids. We ran into many parents at PEC yesterday checking out their teacher placement for the new year. Thank you EUSD for our awesome new paint job at Central. No more pink! What did you do on your summer vacation?
