Columbus (Ohio) district finds other ways to use old schools

July 13, 2010
Some facilities will be spruced up and offered for lease

From The Columbus Dispatch: The Columbus (Ohio) district, instead of selling off shuttered schools, is finding other uses for the facilities. Five buildings will be spruced up for lease. Three others will be reborn as other district schools, and one will provide temporary school space during renovations. The district's plan is a relief to residents, some of whom have watched a boarded-up school building for years.
