Pineview Elementary community defends school from possible closure

Should the Board of Trustees vote to close the school, district staff say it would create an estimated $1.1 million in ongoing annual operational savings. Johnson told trustees that Pineview fifth-graders achieved an 87% proficiency rate in mathematics — ranking highest in the district and sixth in the state.

However, several Pineview educators highlighted the school’s strong academic performance despite demographic challenges.
