School Closing Alternatives Proposed by Two Board Members
Two Mattoon district board members, Barry McEldowney and Peter Coggeshall, propose alternate closings for September 1879. McEldowney favors closing the Illinois school to move students to Indiana, saving costs and enabling space for other uses. Coggeshall counters with a village-school plan that reshapes district boundaries and keeps Oakwood open, arguing for a different, less disruptive approach.
