Merger Debate Trails State Efforts in Erie County Schools
Sparta merged and Fort LeBoeuf districts appeal a state plan to reorganize Erie County schools into a merged system of six districts or a single option. Officials note potential $28,000 yearly state aid for the six districts if merger occurs, but per capita taxes would shift to a uniform rate under a merged district. The outcome hinges on votes by all districts and July hearings that could set merger timing.
