[Vision2020] School Facilities Bond Questions (was Vote no)

I'm wondering if anyone can clarify a facilities question for me.

My understanding is that keyboarding (definitely a necessary *tool* to send
our kids out into the world with) isn't currently available at our high
school.  Is my understanding correct?

If so, it is my understanding that *part* of the reason keyboarding isn't
currently available at our high school relates to the facility -- I'm not
exactly sure how, but I think I understood that part of the problem is there
isn't *adequate* space currently available without cutting something else of
value?  Can anyone clarify this for me?

Finally, if my understanding is correct, would building a new high school
allow the district the potential to address that current significant (IMHO)
deficit?

Ms. Mix, I know you aren't my area's trustee, but it seems to me you have
put yourself out here as willing to try to answer questions related to the
facilities bond, and I appreciate that  :-)  If you don't know the answer,
that's fine -- I understand my questions kind of go beyond just the scope of
facilities.
