As population matures or shifts within the school district, certain school buildings or classrooms may be removed from the education mainstream and directed to other uses. Efficiency in educational process may also require the altering of grade alignment.

Specific criteria shall be established to support any particular school closing and will be published sufficiently in advance of action to allow for public comment.
Final decision concerning the utilization of all school buildings and facilities is the responsibility of the Board.
