I didn't even know there was a school over there. I just cant comprehend how Carver and Sherwood Elementary schools are less than 1/2 a mile from a Battlefield Fire station. The Sherwood neighborhood the elementary is named after isn't in the city limits.

Though I think Willard has had an elementary school inside spfd for a long time too. I think the grade school out west division is Willard.

Went there as a kid. Really almost wish I got looked at for the tism and adhd I know I got now. Would have been a lot easier for both me and the poor teachers.

Hickory Hills is east of city limits now. I'm curious what fire department they use out there. I'm sure my friend would have complained if he had Strafford fire, but theirs is the nearest fire station.

Lol, School District boundaries don’t follow the city boundaries.
