Anchorage Parents Protest School Closures

Parents in Anchorage express outrage as the school board closes three elementary schools, including the states first STEM school, Campbell, with minimal notice. The decision, made to address a $90 million budget shortfall, has left families feeling blindsided and unsafe. Despite community pleas, the board stands firm, citing declining enrollment and flat state funding. Parents are now rallying for a reversal, with petitions and community council support, as the Anchorage Assembly prepares to vote on the budget and the school board meets again.
