AN ALBUQUERQUE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL IS HAVING A BIG PROBLEM THIS YEAR WITH PEOPLE SKATE BOARDING ON THE SCHOOL???S ROOF. IT'S JUST ONE OF THE MANY PROBLEMS ARROYO DEL OSO ELEMENTARY IS DEALING WITH RIGHT NOW. ONE STATE LAWMAKER IS EVEN STEPPING IN--- TO HELP FIGHT BACK. JOE IS LIVE NEAR LOUISIANA AND SAN ANTONIO WITH MORE. TONIGHT A TEACHER HERE TOLD ME SHE DOESN'T LET HER SON USE THE PLAYGROUND WITHOUT SUPERVISION BECAUSE OF EVERYTHING THAT'S HAPPENED HERE.

AND HERE OFFICIALS PUT BARRIERS AROUND SOME PIPES SO KIDS CAN'T CLIMB TO THE ROOF TO SKATE. 'That, I go oh my word.'BUT THE SCHOOL HAS SENATOR DIANE SNYDER IN ITS CORNER. WORKING WITH A-P-S SHE PROPOSED AROUND A QUARTER MILLION DOLLARS IN STATE FUNDS FOR A OVERHANG OF SORTS TO KEEP PEOPLE OFF THE ROOF. AND SOME MONEY WOULD BE USED FOR SECURITY CAMERAS. 'Kids and their families should feel safe. And right now they don't.'ONE TEACHER TOLD US THIS IS A REALLY NICE SCHOOL IN A NICE COMMUNITY AND WANTS IT TO STAY THAT WAY. THE M...
