We don't want Ortega to close because it is an Exemplary school. If they shut it down Ortega, the kids will have to go to a school that might not be Exemplary. We are getting a lot more things like computers that will help us learn new things. We might not have the same opportunity to learn if we are sent to another school.
Most of the kids at Ortega walk to school because their parents are at work and it is reasonably close enough to walk to. Again if AISD closes our school, kids will have to walk at least an hour to get from their house to school. Kids will also have to walk across busy, dangerous roads to get to school.
Instead of closing Ortega, an alternative solution could be:
Add a sixth grade to Ortega to increase the number of students, so AISD can’t shut us down,
Or, write more letters asking people in authority to help save Ortega.
PLEASE DON'T CLOSE ORTEGA!!!

The reason I do not want Ortega Elementary to close is that where are the kindergartners going to go if there is no other school close by to our neighborhood? In addition, Ortega gave me an education and I want my brother and sister in the younger grades to have the same. An alternative solution to closing the school would be to create a 6th grade or the school district could run a campaign to increase the number of students. Please DO NOT close Ortega.
Sincerely,
Hector
