A third lawsuit has been filed against Stillwater School District ISD 834.

Stillwater School District school board members vote 5-2 to close three elementary schools. Lawsuits by two community groups have been threatened or filed against the closures.

Stillwater School District Superintendent Denise Pontrelli is recommending the board delay the vote to close three elementary schools until March 3, 2016. The opposition groups oppose the delay; request the board to reject the delay and Vote NO on the plan at the Feb. 11, 2016 meeting.

A Minnesota school district faces possible legal action by citizens opposed to the proposed closure of three elementary schools. Stating that the district has lost the "fundamental trust of the citizens," the group claims that a lawsuit would be "designed to protect everyone in the district from arbitrary, rushed and capricious overreach by the board and district leadership."
