In Brief: School Board Votes to Move to Three Middle Schools

Board voted at Thursday meeting, still unclear which middle school will no longer operate.

The Huron Valley Board of Education made two decisions Thursday regarding plans to address the enrollment problem in the district's middle schools.

The first was to remove an option that would have put fifth through eighth-graders in the same schools. The second was to move forward and operate only three middle schools in the district.

The board will decide at a later date which of the district's four middle schools to shut down, and what to do with the vacant building. The board is still contemplating moving the International Academy from Lakeland High School to the vacant middle school, and they could repurpose the building into an administrative building.
