The Single School Site Debate Plays Out
The Handley Board and the School Board reject any move to test sentiment by election on white school location in North Winchester. They say the Common Council lacks authority to call such a vote and that any result would have no legal effect, only moral impact. They pledge to stay within the law and oppose bringing schools into politics.
