School closure protests continue

WANT UNIVERSITY TO STAY OPEN- Emma and Zoe Ballen of University Elementary School, like other kids and parents in Conejo Valley Unified School District, are demonstrating to keep their school open. "The school closure issue is difficult for everyone, but can be especially stressful for the children," writes their mom, Amy Ballen. "They are learning that it is okay to stand up for what you believe in." Parents and children may be relieved when the school board is expected to make a final decision on which schools will close on March 18.
