Mammoth Times Daily: Wednesday, March 10, 2010: Several northern Mono Co. schools may have to close
The Eastern Sierra Unified School District looks as if it may have to close several of its schools, according to information contained in a school district resolution released this week that calls for the elimination of at least eight full-time teacher positions, as well as many programs. The resolution states that Lee Vining Community Day School, the High Desert Academy and the Eastern Sierra Academy will have to close, if the resolution passes. The exact reason for the problems were not known at press time, but  Mono County Superintendent of Schools Catherine Hiatt said today that she did not know of the issue until this morning when a parent from the district called her. Hiatt said she would have more information at a later date. At least one e-mail to the Mammoth Times from a district resident states that the district is facing a S2.2 million shortfall, but that number and reason for a possible deficit have not been independently confirmed. The Eastern Sierra School Board has scheduled an emergency meeting on this matter at 7 p.m., Friday, March 12 at the Lee Vining Elementary School. The Mammoth Times has a call into ESUSD Superintendent Don Clark seeking more information and will update information to this site as it is available. – WG
