Baltimore City school officials are defending their efforts to install air conditioning and upgrade broken furnaces, leaky roofs and poor plumbing ("Franchot, NAACP seek DOJ action on school air conditioning," Sept. 21).
All this coming only one week after Balitmore's mayor and City Council approved a $660 million tax break for Under Armour's Port Covington project — a move that will negatively affect funding for city schools for the next 40 years. How shameful!
