Students at Havens Elementary School in Piedmont will be relocated during the construction next year to a campus in Emeryville.   The Board voted 3:2 choosing the Emeryville site over several Piedmont options. Several weeks prior   to Tuesday’s Board of Ed meeting Piedmont Residents were encouraged to email their opinions to the District.  About 50% of emails from Havens parents were against the Emeryville site.  Parents of Beach and Wildwood Elementary Schools attended the meeting in full force and were in favor of the Emeryville site which is estimated to be a less expensive alternative by $500K-$2 M.  Their concern was that Measure E money for retrofitting Beach & Wildwood Schools would run out if a Piedmont site were selected.
