WENT OFF AND THEN FIRED AT DETROIT POLICE WHO CAME TO THE SCENE. NO ONE WAS INJURED. Karen: DETROIT'S CODY HIGH SCHOOL NEEDS HELP. IT'S IN DISREPAIR. Devin: STUDENTS DESERVE A LOT MORE THAN THEY'VE BEEN GETTING AND THEY'RE ABOUT TO GET IT. CHUCK IS BACK WITH WORD ABOUT A SPECIAL PROJECT. WE'VE BEEN TALKING ABOUT THIS BEHIND THE SCENES FOR SOMETIME. TELL US ABOUT IT. Chuck: CODY HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATING 37% OF ITS STUDENTS AND NOW THEY GRADUATE OVER 80%. SO DETROIT PUBLIC SCHOOLS COMING TO SCHOOLS, UNITED WAY, A LOT OF GROUPS AND STRATEGIES, HOW TO TAKE THE KIDS WITH SO MUCH NEED AND SO MUCH HOPE AND MOVE THEM TO THE NEXT LEVEL WHILE MOST HIGH SCHOOL KIDS ARE THINKING ABOUT VIDEO GAMES, THE CODY KIDS ARE BUCKLING DOWN, BUT THE PHYSICAL BUILDING AND THE NEIGHBORHOOD AROUND IT IS IN NEED. HERE'S LIFE REMODELED TO THE RESCUE TO NOT ONLY REMODEL THE SCHOOL AND 100 BLOCKS AROUND IT WITH TENS OF THOUSANDS OF VOLUNTEERS, BUT HELP REMODEL LIVES. YOUNG PEOPLE ARE THE BUILDING BLOCKS OF ANY COMMUNITY, AND NOWHERE IS THAT MORE FOCUSED THAN AT OUR LOCAL SCHOOLS. TIGHT BUDGETS HAVE CAUSED SOME SCHOOL BUILDINGS LIKE CODY HIGH SCHOOL TO FALL BEHIND IN UPKEEP AND MAINTENANCE. THAT'S WHERE LIFE REMODELS STEPS IN. THIS AUGUST, THE CODY HIGH SCHOOL CAMPUS, WHICH IS HOME TO THREE SMALL HIGH SCHOOL PROGRAMS, WILL BENEFIT FROM MAJOR RENOVATIONS THAT WE AS A DISTRICT OPERATING UNDER A FINANCIAL EMERGENCY WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO UNDERTAKE OTHERWISE. Chuck: SO COMING IN AUGUST, LIFE REMODELED WILL BRING RENOVATION ARE FOR STATE-OF-THE-ART CLASSROOMS AND LABS, AND INCLUDES PAINTING, LANDSCAPING, REPLACING WINDOWS, A NEW ROOF AND REPAIRING ELECTRICAL AND PLUMBING AND TRANSFORMING CODY INVOLVES MORE THAN JUST WORK ON THE BUILDING. IT INVOLVES IMPROVING THE SCHOOL ENVIRONMENT. IT HOPES TO INSTALL A NEW TRACK AND FOOTBALL FIELD ACROSS THE STREET FROM THE HIGH SCHOOL, AS WELL AS RENOVATE HOMES IN THE SURROUNDING AREA AND DEMOLISH SEVERAL BURNED-OUT HOUSES. THE FOUNDER, CHRIS LAMBERT, EXPLAINS WHY THIS IS SO IMPORTANT. THE REASON IT'S NECESSARY IS BECAUSE DETROIT HAS A LOT OF HOPE BUT THEY HAVE A LOT OF NEED. WE, AS A CITY. AND DOWNTOWN IS SEEING INCREDIBLE IMPROVEMENTS, BUT THE NEIGHBORHOODS, THAT'S ANOTHER STORY. AND WE HAVE GOT TO WORK TOGETHER TO MAKE IT HAPPEN. Chuck: YOU MAY RECALL LAST YEAR, LIFE REMODELED WAS IN DETROIT AND OTHER CITIES BUILDING HOMES, SORT OF A HABITAT FOR HUMANITY EFFORT BUT WAS HELPING REMODEL THE LIVES WITH A GUARANTEE OF STAYING THREE YEARS TO HELP EVERYTHING, JOB COUNSELING AND COMING ALONGSIDE THE KIDS, ET CETERA. NOW THEY'RE GONNA ADOPT THE HIGH SCHOOL, THE HIGH SCHOOL AND THE 100 BLOCKS AROUND, TEARING DOWN, AND PAINTING UP. IT'S A COMBINATION OF GOVERNMENT, CHUMP, AND ORGANIZATIONS COMING TOGETHER WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR TENS OF THOUSANDS OF VOLUNTEERS AUGUST 11-17 ALL COMING INTO THE CODY/ROUGE AREA. THE SCHOOL IS IN ON THIS AND THE KIDS ARE FIRED UP AND THE NEIGHBORHOOD SUPPORT SYSTEM FROM THE ALUMNI ASSOCIATION TO THE ROUGE ASSOCIATION, THEY'RE ALL IN. THIS IS SOMETHING WE'LL WITNESS THAT I THINK IS HISTORIC AND WILL HELP WITH OTHER SCHOOLS AND GETTING OUR CITY ON THE RIGHT TRACK. IT'S REALLY COOL! Devin: ENORMOUS!

ROARING SPRING - Spring Cove School District will hire away at least three staffers from a regional special-education program next week to begin a local replacement, the school board agreed Monday.
The hirings, set for approval at a voting meeting next Monday, would be the first for Spring Cove's proposed Life Skills program. Currently run by Intermediate Unit 8, a regional education authority, Life Skills teaches children with learning disabilities to better participate in work and their communities.
But at Monday's meeting, two parents of a Life Skills student - one of them a district counselor - questioned administrators on their public silence until the program takeover was nearly underway. While a related program for an expanded kindergarten has prompted parent polls and requests for public participation, they said, Life Skills parents received little information and had no say in the change.
"Why wait until the eleventh hour to bring this to a vote?" asked Stephanie Thompson, a school counselor, of the March 18 vote to secede from the IU-8 program.
Thompson criticized Superintendent Robert Vadella for focusing on hoped-for monetary savings, rather than benefits to Life Skills students, in his proposal.
"I have to tell you how disheartening it was to see slide after slide of financial figures," she said.
In a March presentation, Vadella said the change could save as much as $150,000, particularly if neighboring districts join Spring Cove and agree to send their Life Skills students to the newly independent classes.
Thompson's husband, Jeff Thompson, cited a school board policy that encourages "community engagement" and collaboration, something he said Life Skills parents weren't offered.
Vadella said three Life Skills educators have agreed to transfer to the district program, with more possibly to come. The district is awaiting answers from some neighboring schools on whether they'll join with Spring Cove, he said.
"We didn't take this lightly," he said in an address at Monday's meeting. "If we save those local dollars here, it's possible we could spend them on another local program."
