In a 32-page report, a state review panel recommended closing Adams City High School and reorganizing the Adams 14 School District. The panel cited the district's culture, along with declining enrollment and the number of current students choosing to not attend Adams 14 as evidence of the need for"drastic change."
"I might not get the opportunity to graduate from Adams City High School if they shut it down," said Areli Gutierrez, a student within the district."[The state] needs to meet us halfway." "What we're looking for is to have our public schools open," said Elizabeth Rivas, whose daughter attends Central Elementary School."We don't want them to close, we don't to say no to our kids."Rivas says the district needs to stay intact so Latino culture can be preserved. She says bilingual coursework and more community engagement are also important.
