Both
Buena Vista and Inkster school districts indicated that they thought they might
be able to secure the financing necessary to remain open and operate during the
2013-2014 school year; however, failed to do so by close of business Monday.
Treasury
officials stated early this week that the lack of the necessary document means
that state officials will be forwarding recommendations of dissolution to the
Saginaw Intermediate School District (Buena Vista) and Wayne County Regional Educational
Service Agency (Inkster) based on meeting criteria outlined in Public Act 96 of
2013.
The
respective ISDs will then declare the districts dissolved and make a
determination regarding the transfer of students to another district. Under the
law, the ISDs can vote to dissolve the districts and relocate the students or
request that State Superintendent of Public Education Mike Flanagan relocate
them.
