Some Residents Oppose College Park Charter School

Residents are worried about congestion.

Traffic congestion, taxes and crime are a concern for some College Park residents with a possible 700-student charter school slated to move into the neighborhood, according to a Gazette story.

The school is set to open in 2013 and would use the former College Park Elementary School building on Clavert Road. The school would service grades six through 12.

There are still decisions to be made that could help with those opposed to the school, according to the Gazette story.
