Hocking County Board Proposes State Counter Plans
Hocking County School Board issued counter proposals after state input on eliminating one room schools. They completed consolidation of Green and Haydenville and weighed Perry to Laurelville with 87 000 for new rooms to run eight grades with separate teachers. They favor Salt Creek students moving to Laurelville and oppose a Salt Creek three room build. They seek Oreville admission to New Straitsville and suggest Webb Summit join Gore. They deem Washington to Starr transfer acceptable if locals agree and favor Murray City joining Ward as part of broader educational work.
