This is one of the schools doug hill, so and a few now theyll finish the school year there is one of the administrators right there just watching the parents drop off their kids. At the end of the year, theyll say goodbye and theyll never come back to the school again because the School District the evergreen School District in san jose decided it was now worth keeping this school and the other school that you mentioned, laura wood elementary open at a cost of 12 million they were already in a budget constraint. So they decided actually couple of months ago that a couple oschools would be on the chopping block and they made the decision last night this was not a unilateral decision where weve seen before with the School District makes it and its up to the parents and the administrators to deal with it instead this was a group effort that they had a committee made up of 24 members of the community some School Board Members the superintendent they invited parents as well maybe not all the parents, but the parents who did chimed in they all seem to agree that it was worth shutting this down moving the students and the teachers to the other nearby schools and trying to find money down the road without having to deal with bigger cuts say the xt 2 to 3 years ive done many of these stories before james and area and this is getting close to the beginning of school, not exactly i dont know exactly the school for this school but you can see its not that busy for 30 minutes out from the beginning of school so perhaps ill try to confirm that perhaps this one of the reasons why they chose to close to school maybe it was not as populated.
