School Board: Members Expected To Discuss Minister's Recommendations

The future of a South Shore school is expected to be up for discussion this evening. School Board members will receive a letter from the education minister regarding her recommendation to forego school closures for the current year while a new review process is created. The board decided late last month to close Gold River-Western Shore Elementary in September and send students to Chester. The board wanted to explore legal opinion on its options, so it's not clear if a decision will be made during tonight's meeting. It gets underway at 7pm at the board office in Bridgewater.
