(Pittsburgh, PA) The board of Pittsburgh Public Schools voted against a plan which called for wide-ranging changes across its district, which included closing nine buildings. The board voted 6-3 against the Future-Ready Facilities Plan yesterday. This plan would have placed reorganization on the district of Pittsburgh which called for the closing of twelve schools. A motion to table a decision failed in a 5-4 vote, which was how the final decision was made.
