[CPEO-MEF] KALAELOA - ONE YEAR LATER

[mervtano@iiirm.org]

A little more than a year ago, Barbers Point Elementary School was
surrounded by a thriving neighborhood and kids filled its classrooms.

Today, when Principal Claudia Nakachi looks beyond the school grounds, she
sees nothing but rows of abandoned military housing. The exodus over 
the past year has cut the school's enrollment in half, from 570 to 264.
Nakachi expects it to drop further before stabilizing.

"We're in the middle of a ghost town," she said.
