They can't build the schools fast enough. Each time a new one opens, they have to add trailer rooms, and then start building another one the next year.

Almost every week, our church has a new family visit from Michigan or Ohio. It's crazy.
Wow! I am so used to growing up in fast-growing towns that cant build schools fast enough to meet the demand so this is new to me. Schools closing cuz of not enough students? Scary!
