When it was announced that the board was considering the closing of the schools, particularly Cave Spring, many people were upset and concerned.
Over a hundred people attended the public hearing concerning Cave Spring Elementary at the Coosa High School Auditorium and voiced their outrage at the school board.
A public comment session concerning the closure of Cave Spring Elementary School saw a large, and heated, turnout as Floyd County school board members prepare for a similar meeting Thursday evening.
