New bills regulating school closures may be filed after Alpine School District's superintendent and school board president failed to appear before lawmakers.
New legislation on school closures may follow, after Alpine superintendent and school board president fail to appear at committee meeting.
A group of 33 parents sued the district on April 28, contending it has failed to follow state law for getting public input on closure decisions. On Dec. 8, they emailed parents and local officials about their intent to conduct the study. According to the parents’ lawsuit, the district has at times argued that communication started the clock on the 120-day notice.
After several open houses, the board then voted to remove three elementary schools from the study until 2024, but to “continue the process” of potentially closing Sharon and Valley View in 2023.Lawmakers said it seemed like the board had made the decision before gathering public input.
