writing the new principles. she wants to see the history prioritylist. so do a lot of portsmouth residents. especially those i talk with in the hisotric olde portsmouth's history dates back to the colonial era -- and obviously much history made throughout the civil war. that's why people like business owner joe elder are re- think this new list of priorities. ((c175 23:24)) "the idea of trying to eliminate some of our history in my mind is ridiculous." ((c175 24:00)) "that's what people come here are wanting to see if our history, so to try to eliminate it is ridiculous. it's what sells us, it's what we are, who we are." the council is slated to vote on this set of priorities next tuesday. this is just a proposed list. priorities can be added and taken away. we'll of course keep you updated on what makes the cut. meantime, coming up on wavy news at 5:30 -- i'll tell you about another

the committee create a 180 and 181 - day calendar for their consdieration. having fewer days for students and more time for professional development is something at least two board members and the beach education association supports. sot - trenace riggs, virginia beach education association - clip 2 5:21 by virginia beach having 183 it hasn't proved to be better. 5:27 butt sots 4:39 we just need to do something that's going to work for the whole system. not only for teachers, and staff but for students and for their families.4:48 school board members will vote on the new, shorter calendar in two weeks. we are working to put the proposed calendars on our website wavy.com. when its posted you can find with this story. im brandi cummings 10 on your side. newport news police need your help locating a shooting suspect.
