"This past year the school dept. stated that there was an influx of over a hundred+ extra students…? where did they come from"

They come from declining enrollment at the PRIVATE schools you moron. Don't you hear and see ads for LaSalle, Hendricken and others in the media? Did you forget about Fatima closing its doors? The private school census is down due to the crappy economy. Where do you think these students go?

Jim McGaw

A lifelong Portsmouth resident, Jim graduated from Portsmouth High School in 1982 and earned a journalism degree from the University of Rhode Island in 1986. He's worked two different stints at East Bay Newspapers, for a total of 18 years with the company so far. When not running all over town bringing you the news from Portsmouth, Jim listens to lots and lots and lots of music, watches obscure silent films from the '20s and usually has three books going at once. He also loves to cook crazy New Orleans dishes for his wife of 25 years, Michelle, and their two sons, Jake and Max.
