Officials hope to have a timeline for decisions in place by next week.
Neshaminy school board members last night appeared to support delaying until possibly later this summer or next year a decision on possibly closing a district school, a move needed to address declining student enrollment. To delay would mean the board would move back to its initial timeline for a school closure effective September 2002, rather than this September as has been discussed in recent weeks. He added that the board is facing a difficult budget that needs to be adopted in a few weeks and that he'd rather put his energies into trimming it than deciding on a school closure. Board member Ruth Frank agreed. The board also agreed to vote on a decision timeline Tuesday night, when a third community-input session is scheduled at Maple Point Middle School on the proposed school.
