Episode Synopsis

 What happens when shrinking enrollment and tight budgets force a state to rethink how many schools it can sustain? West Virginia’s Board of Education voted to close 15 rural schools, saying consolidation is needed to improve efficiency and maintain educational quality. Many communities worry the closures will mean longer bus rides and the loss of vital local institutions. (Source: The Times of India)
