South Kitsap works to heal wounds over fractious school bond battle

With 2,600 students, South Kitsap High School is the largest in the state. The size of the school -- once a source of pride for this growing community -- has become somewhat of a burden. Some say its taken a toll on the morale of the community, but some former students have launched a campaign to turn that around. We werent passing school bonds," says Port Orchard resident Eric Worden. The energy level is getting kind of down. The latest defeat is a proposed $184 million bond to build a second high school, which failed to get the required 60% of the vote last November. Worden says the rift over the second high school has taken a toll on the morale of the community.
