Our 3 children are graduates of Douglas elementary school. We initially bought our home in Paul Nor because it had a neighborhood school to walk to and I know of several others who bought their homes here for the same reason. We look forward to possibly having our grandchildren attend Douglas when old enough as well. This is quite a shock to our community and needs much more evaluation and community input. I respectfully request that Douglas be taken off the closure list at this time.
