RAYMOND — The Regional School Unit 14 board will hold a public workshop Wednesday night to review six cost-cutting proposals that include closing Jordan-Small Middle School or the Manchester School in Windham.

The school board met last week to discuss the proposals. Most board members favored an option to close the Jordan-Small Middle School and convert Raymond Elementary School to kindergarten through grade 8.

The move would save the district an estimated $774,439 in the next five years, but it would require major renovations to the elementary school’s cafeteria, gymnasium, library and classrooms for science.

The workshop will be held at 6:30 p.m. at Raymond Elementary School. For more information about the six proposals, go to www.windham.k12.me.us.
