Chapter 6

The list that was given to him from the school board looked smaller than he thought it would have been. Heath then realized he’d only been given a part of the needs the school had. His brother Trenton had been given one, as well as the others in the family. They were comparing the lists when Shep stood up and handed them each a credit card. It was from the account now called Special Projects.

“We have to use this?” Shep said it would be easier for them to keep track of what was spent if they did that. “I can see that. However, this stuff that we’re getting, do you think it would be cheaper to build a brand new building? I mean, this list has things on it like upgrading the bathrooms. Putting in new air conditioner units. I know for a fact that air units could run upwards of ten grand. Not that we could build for that much, but it would be costly.”

“That’s one of the things we’re going to talk about. I’ve taken a look at the cost to build, as you suggest. However, the amount of red tape is a great deal to have to deal with. Even with Ricky helping me, he said it could take months to sometimes years to get approval for something like this. Then they could change their mind halfway through the project, and we’re stuck.” Rodney said he’d looked into things when he’d been told about the meeting today. “You finding out something that would help make this go easier is good with me.”

“We build it on our own anyway. We can say that we’re building it to use as a private school that we want to run for ourselves. Then once the building is finished, we can rent it out to the district, so they aren’t responsible for the upkeep and maintenance of it. Also, we’d be able to upgrade when we want, as well as shut it down if it comes to that. I doubt we’ll go that far, but it is something to think about.” Heath said he liked Rodney’s idea. “There’s more, too, that Rebel and I were talking about. With the magic we both have, we can put things around the building inside and out that would make it safer for the kids. No one, not even the teachers, would have to be informed of it. But this magic we could put around it would simply be an added layer of protection for not just our children, but all of them.”

“At what cost to you two? I mean, I don’t have any kids right now, and I’m not in any kind of hurry to have them, but I also don’t want the two of you hurt while keeping the kids that may or may not go there safe. What does it cost you in health?” Rebel told Heath it would only be something that they’d use when they were alerted to someone trying something.
