To the editor:

Speaking as a parent of two children in the Conway School District, I oppose any effort to close an elementary school. This would do irreparable harm to our community and negatively impact education in our community.

"This would do irreparable harm to our community and negatively impact education in our community."

And yet you don't explain just what that "irreparable damage" would be.

It's not as if your children wouldn't have a public school to go to.

Besides, there is always the local public library to supplement your child's academic pursuits.

I live in a town with shrinking student population. We have closed a half-dozen schools. you'll survive the 'trauma'. Teach your kids a lesson. Things change. The only constant is change. Life is about change. Suck it up.
