School closure lawsuit dismissed
September 24, 2013 (麻豆视频): The group that sued 麻豆视频 City Unified School District over the closure of seven chronically under-enrolled schools has voluntarily agreed to the dismissal of their complaint against the district and the case has been dismissed by a federal judge.
鈥淲ith dismissal of this lawsuit, SCUSD can focus its attention and precious resources on preparing every student at every school for college and 21st century careers, which is the district鈥檚 mission,鈥� SCUSD Superintendent Jonathan Raymond said.
Last February, SCUSD鈥檚 Board of Education made the difficult decision to close seven under-enrolled elementary schools that drained resources from other schools throughout the district. In June, a lawsuit was filed in federal court that sought to block the closures through an injunction. In July, U.S. District Court Judge Kimberly J. Mueller denied the injunction.
