Smaller sites for schools

From the school siting list -

Two noteworthy excerpts from this piece include:

"More than 5,500 students attend Cypress Bay, which was built in 2002 for 3,400."

And this:

"The district typically needs at least 40 acres for high schools, a problem in a county where large tracts of land are scarce and price tags are sky-high for any available large parcels. And the district is under the gun to find a spot."

Note: I wonder if they have thought about using smaller sites. I have yet to see a study that correlates academic outcomes with large school sites. http://www.sun-sentinel.com/news/local/broward/sfl-flbmmm1211sbdec11,0,1555901.story?coll=sofla_tab01_layout

Like most people I live a hectic life and who has the time for much exercise? Thanks to xtracycle now I do. By using my bike for daily activities I can get things done and get an hour plus work out in 15 minutes extra of my time, not a bad deal and beats taking the extra time going to the gym. In case you are still having trouble being motivated; the National Center of Disease Control says that inactivity is the #2 killer in the United States just behind smoking. ( http://www.cdc.gov/nccdphp/bb_nutrition/ ) Get out there and start living life! I can carry home a full shopping cart of groceries, car pool two kids or just get lost in the great outdoors camping for a week. Well I got go, another outing this weekend.
