The Glencoe-Silver Lake School Board is, unfortunately, back to square one on its Helen Baker Elementary School property.
The now-vacant school building and its surrounding grounds has been a hot topic in recent weeks, as the School Board considered a partnership effort with the city of Glencoe to develop housing on the site, heard a proposal to convert the property for community use and, Monday night, received an offer from a private citizen to buy the property for $2 and, if it could not be re-sold, to raze the building and restore the site to a grass parcel.
