Facing deadline, school board will meet to discuss elementary woes

The Antigo school board, facing a Christmas deadline for a decision on whether to close all or some rural elementary facilities at the end of the current school year, may be ready to make a decision Tuesday.

The board will convene for its regular December session at 7 p.m. in the Middle School Library.

The agenda item states that the board will discuss and perhaps act “on options to address the 2013-14 budget,” an all-encompassing statement that could include everything on closing elementary schools to conducting an April referendum.

The board has held a series of special meetings on consolidation in the wake of its failed November referendum, which would have replaced all seven elementary schools with one central facility.
