"Kansas City school board narrowly approved the plan to close 29 out of 61 schools Wednesday night at a meeting packed with angry parents. "
"Covington has blamed previous administrations for failing to close schools as the enrollment -- and the money that comes with it -- shrank. Past school closure plans were either scaled back or scrapped entirely.
Administrators warned that without the cuts, the district would have been in the red by 2011."
No parallel at all to Manitoba eh?
Oh right in Manitoba the school boards just raise taxes or get more money from the province instead of trying to live within their means.
