INDIANAPOLIS PUBLIC SCHOOLS CUT BACK
The Indianapolis Public School Systym developed a plan at the last school board meeting to close eight public schools. This will require a colosol move of students and teachers next year. Superintendent Eugene White said that students and teachers won't be informed of their new school assignments until next year. The closing plan was drafted in order to counter dwindling enrollement and the state's need to cut their budged by $20 million this year. School board President Mary Busch said that there has been little opposition to the corporation's announcement to close the most schools in Indianapolis' history. The empty buildings of the closed schools will not go to waste, however. One middle school is planned to transfer into an alternative school, while another will be a program for gifted students.
