Evidence of one of Obama’s many lies. Obama insinuated that the school had not been touched since it was built 150 years ago and that it is falling apart. Relevant quote:

On November 8, 1980, the central portion of the main building was destroyed by fire. The administrative office, the library, and 16 classrooms were obliterated. While this portion of the school was being rebuilt, students attended school in Little Rock. New facilities were completed in March of 1983. Also, during the summer of 1982, the classrooms in the white building were remodeled.

Oh, white is referring to the color of the building and not a segregated building. FYI.

Here is the website for the school. Doesn’t look too bad to me. I’ve been to rundown schools in my youth and they didn’t look nearly as nice.

If you check out the media center you see that they have a computer lab, in school television studio, and video production and editing equipment.

No money? Check this out! Every year they take a school sponsored trip to Washington, D.C. When I was in school, in southern Georgia, we were lucky to be able to go on a school field trip to the Okefenokee swamp. Seriously! When I was in high school we went to Atlanta one year.
