Future of Lundy Elementary back before CCSD Trustees
Today, the topic of Lundy Elementary is back on the CCSD's Board of Trustees' agenda.
Mt. Charleston's only elementary school closed in August of 2023 after suffering damage from the remnants of Hurricane Hilary.
Then this past May, district leaders proposed closing Lundy for good, citing high repair costs and because it only served about a dozen students.
They eventually took that option off the table after outcry from the community, but in August, board members voted against repairing the school.
Instead, officials are exploring the possibility for the school to live on in another building, potentially adding classrooms to the Mt. Charleston library.
It's important to note the trustee who represented that area at the time, Katie Williams, was against repairing the school, which is what families wanted. Williams resigned in September after the district attorney said she no longer lived locally.
Now, the interim trustee appointed to serve out the rest of Williams' term, Nakia Jackson-Hale, is requesting a reconsideration of the decision to not repair the school and explore a library addition instead after she said she spoke with families and staff and looked at the school herself.
