"We need another elementary school, and to continue the use of the old Memorial High School Property for education should please the community," he said. The, tentative agreement calls for the district to sell about 12 acres of the 26 -acre school site, including the stadium and the lower athletic fields, to Braemar Corp. of Agoura Hills. The athletic -fields were the subject of a costly and bitter legal fight between the school dis mnmmnn� trio and the city, which wanted'th' .ff land for a park.
