"It's just funny when people make such a huge deal about having a neighborhood school and then close two of them - plus a magnet school - to add one."
Good point, but I have read in previous posts that Dr. Horton was tasked with finding a way to build/finance the Fifth Ward School. Perhaps this is why he was hired? Not clear.

Yes, I do think he was tasked with that, and I would guess it was part of interview conversations when he was trying to get the job. I'm also not totally sure that, when he was first hired, it was yet clear that trying to open the new school would automatically coincide with closing an existing one.
