* Sarasota school enrollment drops by 500 students as expected by the district. Sarasota H.S. took the biggest hit with a loss of 200 students. Educators think it is due to the economy and people moving to other areas for a job. Manatee schools on the other end gained 400 students. Go figure?
Big Al's goes down the tube but activity there may indicate someone new is taking over or Big Al will give it a new name? In this town anything is possible:)
