Terre Haute, In. – It now appears to finally be officially a done deal… On Monday, by a 5 to 2 vote, the Vigo school board stood by its January 10th decision to close and repurpose Meadows Elementary… rejecting a motion by board member Joni Wise to rescind that 10 decision. Wise and board member Rosemarie Scott had voted to rescind the earlier decision, causing the re-evaluation, but in the end, the Vigo school board will stay the course. The school will close at the end of the current school year. At the end of the meeting yesterday, several Meadows parents expressed disappointment… some saying they found it “unreasonable” that citizens could not comment prior to the decision — only after it had been made.
