Elyria School Levy Defeated Despite Ward Support
The 6.9 mill levy failed in Elyria with 4,679 against and 4,263 for. Ward I, II, III, IV, V, VI, VII and townships showed mixed results, prompting a planned long Christmas break and continued bus cuts. State officials say a takeover is unlikely, and the district will still meet 180 school days.
