Five mill levy results stir district across three counties
Levy results trickled in from Medina, Lorain, and Ashland counties after polls closed at 7 30 p m. Huntington Township approved the levy, Sullivan and Jackson townships defeated it, Spencer Village narrowly passed, while Spencer and Homer townships rejected it. Committee members vowed to try again as Superintendent Searing planned continued outreach, warning that without local funds the district faces slim chances for state aid and possible closure of Black River schools in 1979.
