Buffalo Board of Education Postpones Vote on School Closures

By James Carr, Ourturn Records News BUFFALO — The Buffalo Board of Education will not vote on the district's proposed school closure plan Wednesday night, after heavy public criticism. Board members were expected to vote on the proposed Buffalo Public Schools closure plan at McKinley High School. The delay comes after community members pushed back against the plan at public meetings, including an in-person session where parents, educators, and community members voiced concerns about the proposed closures. District leaders decided to take more time to deliberate. The proposal to close schools across the district has drawn strong opposition from community leaders and advocates throughout the process.
