 In April 2009, Libbey High School’s Student Council President had strong words for administrators and school board members with regard to saving their school.The proposal to eventually send some Libbey neighborhood students to Scott, Bowsher, and Waite high schools is "segregation of different populations and is racist", they claimed.Libbey always had been the "unwanted stepchild" of Toledo Public Schools and 'their positive news is always overshadowed by the negative", students added.
