School's weight room crisis raises safety and equity concerns
During a recent government meeting, concerns were raised regarding the inadequate state of the weight room facilities, which are impacting students' access to physical fitness opportunities. It was highlighted that much of the existing equipment is non-functional, limiting students' ability to engage in essential fitness activities.

In response to the lack of proper facilities, the school has been utilizing a nearby park as an alternative space for physical activities. However, this solution has raised safety concerns among students and parents, who have reported feeling uneasy about the presence of questionable individuals in the park. This situation has led to a decline in student participation in extracurricular athletic programs.

The discussion also touched on the potential of local resources, such as the Carm McNair football field and nearby basketball courts, which could be leveraged to enhance athletic opportunities for students. The meeting underscored the urgent need for improvements in school facilities to ensure that all students have equal access to safe and functional environments for physical fitness and extracurricular activities.
