The district responded: “We recognize that closing a school can be emotional for the community. However, we are confident that the process followed to make this decision which included a series of public forums to gather feedback and consultation with all stakeholders was handled carefully and appropriately. Our superintendent made his recommendations based on the best available data, and the board of education took all information into account when making its decision.”
Activist Gwendolyn Cogshell has concerns about the lack of data and research done on virtual learning.
“Why are we going virtual?” Cogshell said. “We are going backwards. The mayor has opened the city. It s time for the school board to sit down and discuss virtual learning.”

Victorville Daily Press
Air Force veteran and former Adelanto Mayor Charley B. Glasper, once said, “When I leave this Earth, please know that heaven is where I’m bound, so don’t cry for me.”
The 84-year-old Glasper, who served three terms on the Adelanto City Council, died Friday evening at Victor Valley Global Medical Center in Victorville after going into cardiac arrest at home, according to his wife, Evelyn Malcom-Glasper, who spoke with the Daily Press.
“He was five days away from celebrating his 85th birthday,” she said. “Charley always told me that he wanted to live to be 100 so Willard Scott from ‘The Today Show’ could announce his birthday on TV.”
