The Napa one room Wooden Valley Elementary seeks to survive amid a nationwide push to shut small schools. In San Diego County Palomar Mountain School closed with seven students, while near Las Vegas Lundy and Goodsprings face vote delays. Districts plan cuts, larger classes, shorter years and layoffs to cover a $10 million gap in a $115 million budget.
