Another school in an American-American neighborhood is up for closure–Lincoln Park Elementary. If the School Superintendent does recommend it and the school board approves, Lincoln Park will be the fourth closed school with a majority minority student population:
Minority Student Percentage (2009-10 school year)
Lincoln Park: 93.2
Allie Yniestra: 78.5
Hallmark: 91.8
Spencer Bibbs: 94.6
What will the School Superintendent do with these abandoned schools? Sale to highest bidders?
This is becoming an issue–whether the School Board recognizes it or not.
