LINCOLN – A decision to paint over 40 glass window panes at Lonsdale Elementary School in an effort to prevent sun glare in certain classrooms has Lincoln officials scratching their heads.
Offering an explanation during Monday’s School Committee meeting, Chairman Joseph Goho said whiteboards used by educators at Lonsdale had been rendered ineffective due to the glare of the sun, which made it difficult for students learning virtually to make out what was on the board.
