I am advocating against the closure and/or proposed âredesignâ and ârepurposingâ of the River School campus. I am a parent of a 7th grader and am saddened to think that future Napa families would be left without this amazing public school of choice. I understand the financial gains that closing a middle school may provide to the district, which is predicting declining enrollment for the next several years. I understand how important it is to keep cash reserves above the 3% minimum requirement to avoid state interference in district operations. I also understand the value of engaging in an open and transparent process with the community to explore difficult cost savings opportunities.
