I just have to wonder what Albertson's spin is on the new charter school? He is always still promoting what a great idea it was to build out of town. Saying that the school gymasium was "Packed" when in fact it was a little over half filled. He also said how the students are embracing the new school. I went there for the homecoming festivities during the day and most of the students looked like they were serving sentences. And now, how about how it affects businesses having a school located outside of town. Four businesses in Cook have closed in the last six months. Some might think that the fire at the Brown building was the reason two businesses closed but the fact is that Gilley's was closing in August anyway and there were some strong rumors that the Dollar Barn was considering closing also. How much advertising revenue do you think he is getting from the flower shop, Gilley's and the Dollar store?
