The fate of three elementary schools in the west end of the Rainy River district could be decided early in the new year.
The Rainy River District School Board is being asked to consider the recommendations of advisory committees calling for a rebuild of Donald Young School in Emo and that Sturgeon Creek in Barwick and that Crossroads in Devlin be left open.
A special board meeting to discuss administration's reviews of the reports is now planned for November with the board expected to make a final decision in January.
