The Baytown and Cedar Bayou school districts faced a bid to detach the Chambers county portion of Cedar Bayou after consolidation last spring. Advocates argued smaller schools could offer more voice and honors, while Baytown officials warned about subject variety and transport. A hearing deferred a ruling, with area residents and Barbers Hill officials present. A late note recalls the Pacific Islands trust territory’s vast area but sparse solid land.
