Cost and time may bar ROTC at Ottawa High School
Ottawa High School may miss the chance to host an Air Force ROTC program as the USD 290 district weighs a projected 40 000 to 50 000 dollar cost and tight timelines. Superintendent Jan Collins said the offer targets fall 2003, but budgeting constraints worry administrators and a July 15 deadline looms. The district may seek help from Veterans of Foreign Wars before deciding.
