In a meeting that lasted through Wednesday night, the Berryessa Union School District board voted to close Cherrywood, Toyon and Laneview schools due to low enrollment and funding issues.
Public comment went on for about three hours before the vote was taken, revealing deep community concerns regarding the drastic measures being implemented to address the district's financial challenges.
"I just want you to look around the room and see the damage that's already been done by just the discussion of consolidation," articulated a participant during the discussion, emphasizing the emotional impact of the decisions.
