could this be the end of con high?

It all started as a dream of dr. Paul vallace. People thought it would be a good idea to have a school based on partnerships. High schools like science leadership academy partnered with the Franklin institute, high school of the future partnered with Microsoft, and constitution high school partnered up with the national constitution center. Constitution high school soon became a product of their vision.
Unfortunately the sponsors nor the board of education could afford the building that was wanted. Renting the building made the school immediately possible and affordable. This junky document storage center was transformed into a high school. But as you know there is always a bad side to everything. Well the question that’s hot in the hallways is what the heck are we gonna do when that lease is up? Will the school renew the lease; or will this be goodbye conhigh? Some people say they will only miss their friends but if they had to move they wouldn’t mind. Others say they love the location of the school and would hate to have to move.
As for me being a student at constitution high school I would have to say that this school has many opportunities that a lot of other high schools don’t, so I would really hate to move. This school has progressed very much. We have made changes and passed laws that have made this con high what it is today. Sure it has a few tweaks in it but that’s part of the process of making a good school if we all stick together and make good decisions then we can stand tall forever. But we cant afford to renew that lease then were screwed.
