The Detroit News: Crowd lambastes Detroit school closure plan
‘These schools mean the world to us,’ says one irate speaker
Detroit— During a contentious meeting interrupted by chants and catcalls Tuesday, students, parents and teachers lambasted a plan to close 14 Detroit schools and convert 45 others to charter schools.
The irate crowd of 300 also objected to the meeting itself, including a one-minute limit on speakers and the announcement that school officials planned only to listen to audience comments and not respond to them.
