		<description>I don&#039;t know the latest on the mergers or closures and I haven&#039;t read or seen anything in the news lately.  I would imagine that once a school is closed, then the area that school covered is merged with another school area where the school is still open for business.  It&#039;s still not completely clear to me.



You might want to contact somebody in the superintendent&#039;s office for the latest information about school mergers and closures. Here is the website of the Portland Public Schools.

		<description>What is the status of the school closures right now?  I have read some of links to the Board website but am confused by the language.  Is a merger still a school closure? Is there a news story that covers this  more clearly.</description>

		<description>Thanks for the compliment.



I&#039;m not in favor of the tax and I&#039;m going to give my reasons in a post I&#039;m currently working on.  I hope to have it posted tomorrow.</description>

		<description>Bravo, John Hays! This is the stuff I like to see. Tell me what you think of the MultCo Tax. I think it&#039;s crap, only because they wanted it as a temporary measure and now they are wringing their hands about what to do when it goes away and they shouldn&#039;t have been relying on it in the first place. Anyway!



We were just talking about this at my house last night, so thanks for the super informative links!</description>
