Claremont Board Decides To Shut School

After weeks of uncertainty, the Claremont School Board made a decision about the future of Bluff Elementary School.

The board voted last night to shut that school down as part of an effort to reduce the multi-million dollar budget deficit that school district is facing.

The first day for Bluff students at their new school is expected to be October 20th pending the results of a fire department investigation.

There will be no job cuts as a result of this closure.
