(Pittsburgh, PA) The Pittsburgh Public Schools board took a vote to reopen the discussion on possibly closing almost a dozen schools. A unanimous 8-0 vote was taken on Wednesday night with the conversation surrounding the “Future Ready Facilities Plan” resuming after it was voted down in March last year. The most controversial piece of that plan which caused it to be voted down was that nine schools would be closed in an effort to reduce costs.
