Monday night, a line of parents spoke out against the idea.

One parent brought up the proposed $30 million renovation of the Moon High School stadium. Another asked to see the results of a recent community survey.

“I’ve not heard from one community member yet that thinks that closing a neighborhood school is a good idea,” a parent said.

Another town hall meeting is scheduled for Wednesday at 6 p.m. in the Brooks Elementary School cafeteria.
