Resolution to Close Schools Is Defeated
The Monroeville board of education rejected a plan to shut schools if funds run out this fall. Critics argued state intervention would close doors anyway. With Aug 22 opening approaching, a failed 9 mill levy could force a shutdown in October due to $80,000 owed and about $45,000 in bills. A state auditor audit will determine the final closing date if the levy fails.
