Bob McDevitt of the District 8 Education Council has been doing some number crunching and even though the school district would like to maintain 4 viable high schools in the city, he concedes that may not be possible over the long term but the big question would be which of the high schools would close.
The school district meantime is forecasting a deficit of almost 466 thousand dollars with principals told to be careful with their spending. Minor repairs are being deferred and professional development cut back.
