Committee narrows list of potential Columbus school closings
The outside committee charged with recommending which Columbus schools should close now has a list of 17 schools from which to pick.
Seven are elementary schools and 10 are middle schools. Not all will be closed, but the district has said six or seven will.
"Everything we look at is tentative. This is not the final stage in the process," said Floyd V. Jones, co-chairman of the committee.
The elementary schools are: Deshler, Heyl, Moler, Literature Based Alternative @ Hubbard, Douglas Alternative, Fair and Parkmoore. Out of Deshler, Heyl and Moler, only one will make the final cut as all are in the same region.
The middle schools are: Clinton, Medina, Beery, Buckeye, Eastmoor, Johnson, Sherwood, Indianola, Franklin Alternative and Monroe. Only one will be chosen from each of the following groupings: Clinton and Medina; Beery and Buckeye; and Eastmoor, Johnson Park and Sherwood.
The committee will narrow down the school-closing options again at its next meeting.
Columbus City Schools officials promised to close six buildings as part of a five-year financial plan linked to the passage in November of a combined levy and bond issue.
Here are the basics:
-There are six schools to be closed.
BASED ON THE ARTICLE:
-Out of Deshler, Heyl, and Moler... TWO will be closed
-Out of Clinton & Medena... ONE will be closed
-Out of Berry & Buckeye... ONE will be closed
-Out of Eastmoor, Johnson Park, and Sherwood.... Two will be closed
- Two plus one, plus one equals SIX.
- By this logic, Hubbard Hubbard may be spared.
- Keep in mind, this newspaper ALSO endorsed George Bush.... TWICE!
The threat of school closing will be a topic at our next parents meeting.
PLEASE PLAN TO ATTEND!
All comments will be posted ASAP
