ELMHURST, IL Elmhurst School District 205 board members axed the elementary school Spanish program this week, but they said they did so reluctantly. This is a very difficult decision, and no one took it lightly, member Margaret Harrell said at Tuesday s board meeting.
Officials agreed to look into opportunities for a program during lunch or after school to explore world languages and cultures. They said they would present a plan by the end of the school year.
