Meridian police have revised information about suspects in the vandalism and arson at Parkview Elementary School.

Three juveniles, one age 11 and two who are 13, are facing charges in the case. No other arrests are expected.

Final estimates show that the fire caused more than $50,000 worth of damage to the office and at least one classroom.

Authorities say the boys' cases are expected to be presented to a judge in youth court in July.

Want a better school district? Do like Auburn, AL. Move the projects to a centralized location out in the county. Police them well. They don't work or have cars, so they can't make it back to the city and do all these crimes. You will reduce crime in the city overall! There is nothing to rob/vandalize in the woods! Plus all the local businesses would benefit. This is not about black or white. This is about people who want to work and have a great city no matter what color your skin. If you don't want to improve, LEAVE!

I hope the judge throws the book at them AND their parents plus they should be made to pay for the damages. There is no sense in this kind of vandalism.
