Board Votes AgainTo Close Lost Creek School
Just one week after the Perry County School Board voted to keep Lost Creek Elementary School open next year, the board voted 4-1 again Tuesday (today) to close it. Pressure from a struggling budget has forced board members to reverse the last decision to keep it open for at least another year. Members say they still had a $300,000 hole in the budget and staff cuts were unavoidable while counting on possible funding from the county was not a solid way of balancing it.
