East Allen County Schools reveals possible closings

The East Allen County Schools superintendent unveiled a series of proposals Tuesday that would close several schools, cut staff, change programs and take other steps she said would ward off future financial crisis and improve academic achievement.

The five plans range from closing all five of the district’s high schools and building a new high school to keeping all the high schools and turning Paul Harding High School into a magnet school. In all proposed scenarios, Monroeville and New Haven elementary schools would be closed.
