A proposed football stadium near the park would cost about $6.5 million. The school board has indicated that it would like to help pay for the stadium, as it has for other schools.
If the district is committed to a public-private partnership to raise money for a stadium, the âpublicâ side of the arrangement needs to pledge money, Jones said.
âWeâve never raised our hand and pledged any dollars toward it,â she said.
A tie on that vote resulted in a failed motion. Parker joined Jones, Crowley and Kaplan in favor of the proposal.
The board did vote 6-2 to direct Superintendent Tricia McManus to meet with her staff on how to improve athletic facilities at three schools that lack stadiums â Reynolds, Parkland and Winston-Salem Prep â as well as to estimate the cost of those projects and to identify how to pay for them.

The News & Observer on the unified government by Democrats in Washington, D.C.:
On Wednesday afternoon, shortly after Joe Biden was inaugurated as president, Vice President Kamala Harris swore in three new members of the U.S. Senate, including the two Democratic winners of the recent special election in Georgia. For the first time in a decade, Democrats occupied the White House and controlled the U.S. House and Senate.
We think that’s a good thing for Washington - and for the country - after four years of mostly Republican rule.
So we mean this the most affirming way: Don’t mess this up, Democrats.
