GRAND RAPIDS (WOOD-AM) - A Grand Rapids Public Schools committee is recommending the former Kensington School get torn down.
Larry Johnson, the district's chief of staff and executive director of public safety and school security, says the building has become a target for vandals and trespassers.
"Last month, I think we had at least three and I think our concern is the amount of damage that is beginning to occur inside the building," Johnson said.
There are proposals to convert the building into apartments, housing for the homeless and storage space.
It'll be up to the full board to make the final decision, which could happen during a meeting at Southwest Middle High School in May 15.
