South San Antonio ISD's superintendent pulled the recommendation from the agenda saying the window of opportunity to close the school closed.
South San Antonio ISD's West Campus High School averted closure for 2023-2024 after the district's superintendent pulled a recommendation to do so from the school board's agenda Wednesday night.After South San Antonio Independent School District trustees took months debating the closure of West Campus High School to avoid a financial crisis, its superintendent took the option off the table Wednesday saying it was too late to make it happen next year.
“It is very difficult for our staff to be able to consolidate 500-plus kids on the master schedule to another campus this late in the year,” he said. “Normally that practice happens in January … we are now in mid-to-late April.” “Removing this item today does not mean that we must put this aside forever,” he said. “We all know that we have a deficit and this issue has to be brought up at some time for the following year.
Three other schools in the district were approved for closure in March, but West Campus High School was removed from the list before that meeting by Flores. The move was contested by several other board members, who wrote a memo requesting a new meeting to vote on West Campus. Arrellano, who left the meeting last week after Lopez’s ouster, took the unusual step of stepping off the dais Wednesday night to speak as a citizen and not in his official capacity during public comment.
