PITTSBURG, Kan. — Four schools all alike in dignity, in fair Pittsburg where we lay our scene. Meadowlark, Westside, Lakeside and George Nettels elementary schools: together they educate the children of Pittsburg until they reach the sixth grade, but they also divide Pittsburg into four neat sectors with boundary lines drawn to determine where the children of Pittsburg will attend their early years of school. It seems simple enough: where you live determines which elementary school you go to.
