District would give former elementary school site to the city of Columbus

From The Columbus Dispatch: The Columbus (Ohio) School Board has approved a land swap with the city that would eventually move the Africentric School from Downtown to a site on the East Side. The city would give the district 52 acres that had been the site of the troubled Woodland Meadows housing development. In return, the city would get the closed Reeb Elementary School, where it plans to develop a community center.
