Description
Bellevue School District elementary-level students and parents continued their rally cries outside of open houses on two campuses Wednesday, pleading that their school be spared from consolidation.
It comes after a week of backlash from families, since the district proposed a shift to consolidate three of seven under-enrolled elementary schools to stabilize their budget.
The seven elementary schools under consideration include Ardmore, Eastgate, Enatai, Phantom Lake, Sherwood Forest, Woodridge, and Wilburton. The district said these seven schools have experienced the greatest enrollment decline, and are projected to keep shrinking.
