About 150 residents forming Concerned Citizens of Sharon Hill rallied Sunday night against the Southeast Delco School District building plan. The Citizens' Advisory Committee proposes closing Sharon Hill High and three other schools, relocating grades, and constructing a new central high school for grades 9 to 12, with renovations at Collingdale and Darby Township High Schools for grades 6 to 8. Four elementary schools would serve Darby K to 5 without renovations.
