But we can't let things like efficiency and logic get in the way of pandering to wealthy neighbourhoods and politics now can we.

The kids were moved to an under-utilized school (in fact it was a vacant school.) The relocated students were moved to Eugene Coste which apparently was a 12 minute bus ride from the old school. In addition to that relocation new facilities (portables and a gym) were constructed at the near by Earl Grey School. It was a complete and utter failure of cost control and project management. The cost of the Earl Grey portables and gym was over $5 Million (from what I last saw.)
