Unhappy LOCCA members to address missing trees at Antietam Elementary

WOODBRIDGE — The loss of trees at Antietam Elementary School will be discussed Thursday night.

The Lake Ridge-Occoquan Civic Association (LOCCA) take up the matter at is 7:30 p.m. meeting inside the development services building at the Prince William County Government Center.

Residents and LOCCA members are upset after the school division removed trees from the front of the school earlier this year in the process of constructing 13 new classrooms. They say the trees provided not only cover for students, and served as a buffer between the road and homes, but also as a natural classroom that was meant to connect students with the woods.
