District Identifies 3 Schools It Will Close
From Times Staff and Wire Reports
San Jose Unified School District has finally announced the names of the three elementary schools it will close to save $1.5 million.
The city agency decided this week to close Erikson, Hammer and Hester elementary schools. The agency, which originally selected 12 of the district’s 31 elementary schools for closing, kept the list secret until settling on the final three.
On Wednesday, students at the three schools took home notes saying they would be enrolled elsewhere next fall.
