Scanlon Urges Study Group

In an address to the City Council last night, Mayor Scanlon suggested that a community study group be formed to work out the details of Dr. Hayes proposal, including looking at the best use for each of the six current elementary schools. He also suggested studying how one additional classroom for grades 3, 4 & 5 could be added back in to the plan to reduce projected class sizes in those grades. The Beverly Citizen has a wrapup of the address here. This should be discussed in more detail at tomorrow night's public school committee meeting.
