Trailers loom large as Lawrence weighs school crowding
Supt Randy Weseman says Southwest will gain a double wide this summer boosting the district's trailer count to six. A facilities study will analyze academic safety and financial issues tied to portables as classrooms. The district may keep 38 trailers for now to avoid larger class sizes and plan bond funding in 2002 for brick and mortar growth.

Attorneys argue current zoning and annexation pace constrain options while developers push for a designated area, with Horizon 2020 planning to address future commercial space needs.
