GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., — The Grand Rapids Public School Board is expected to make their final vote on the heavily discussed transformation plan at a meeting scheduled for 6:30 p.m. on Dec. 17.
The plan includes closing 10 schools, including Creston High School. In addition, buildings will be re-purposed and consolidated and the plan will implement uniforms across the district.
Low performance schools like Union High School, Westwood Middle School and Alger High School will implement a turnaround model in an effort to improve grades.
Other changes to the district include possible staff layoffs and a reworking of bus routes.
The transformation plan is expected to save about $5 million a year.
