This is a critically important meeting to attend. St. Paul residents — please join us!

This is our chance to refute claims that St. Andrew’s was abandoned by the community, that it sat idle for years, that designation increases the risk of vacancy, or that it would be impossible to sell. This is a chance to state that expansion and loss of a historic landmark harms the residential and historic charter of the neighborhood. This is a very important meeting.

TCGIS supports enrolling significantly more students on a small site (see table below for comparison with similar schools). This is creating new problems for the community including overcrowding, congestion and, of course, the loss of a historic landmark.
