    DeKalb May Be Forced To Close Schools

    Decatur Metro | February 5, 2009 | 2:36 pm

    I wonder how this latest nugget of info will affect the annexation debate.

    This paragraph in particular is about as comforting as your 4th Quarter 401k statement…

    But given financial challenges that stretch over the forseeable future, [DeKalb Superintendent] Lewis unveiled no major initiatives. Speaking off the cuff as he introduced some of his staff, Lewis said what will likely be DeKalb’s rallying cry going forward: “No matter the challenges, we always seem to rise to the occasion.”

    Ummm….Huzzah?

    I can’t even begin to imagine the turf war that would break out if/when the county needs to come up with a list of schools to close.
