EMERSON Elementary (Proposed Closure) News Update January 31, 2008

Apparently, a school board in Florida can reverse its decision if enough pressure is applied. Here is the link to a story about an "A" school in Palm Beach County called "Galaxy". During last months school board meeting, the Palm Beach school board voted to close Galaxy elementary in front of a few teary eyed parents. The reason given for the closure was declining enrollment and the need to upgrade the buidling (does not apply in our case). Well, if you read this story, the school board obviously reversed its decision "one-hundred-and-ten" percent. Great news for Galaxy elementary!!! We can only hope to achieve half of what was achieved.
