The National Trust is aware of the issue and we are currently working on a new INFORMATION booklet that will address concerns of what to do with aging schools. In the interim, though, we need information ASAP about states that have adopted more sensitive programs or legislation that favors preserving historic schools. I understand that the states of Maryland and North Carolina have passed legislation that requires, at a minimum, a feasibility study of the resource before demolition can occur. I need to know more about the details of that legislation. Also, are there other states who have adopted similar laws that help protect historic schools...Florida, others??? Please let me know and provide contacts so I might get additional information. Thanks for your help. Daniel Carey, NTHP-SRO (803) 722-8552
