Board votes to shut down 2 Vallejo schools

The Vallejo City Unified School District Board has voted to close two elementary schools, Beverly Hills and Vallejo Charter, due to financial constraints and declining enrollment. This decision, made during a meeting on March 9, 2023, aims to address a projected $10 million budget deficit. The closure will affect approximately 300 students, who will need to be redistributed to other schools within the district.

The closures are part of a broader strategy to stabilize the district's finances, with the board also considering further consolidations in the future.
