(Hopewell Township, Pa) The Hopewell School Board heard an update on a feasibility study of district consolidation to decrease 5 buildings to 2 or 3. Dr. Jeff Beltz reported that all school buildings are beyond 25 years of normal life of things done in the buildings. Declining enrollment, building conditions and costs to maintain the buildings were part of the study done by Dan Engen from DRAW Collective, and PNC Bank was on hand to discuss costs. On Saturday, May 18, 2024 at noon, residents can attend a public forum in the high school auditorium.
