BALDWINSVILLE -- School leaders in Baldwinsville will have to look elsewhere if they want to find $1.3 million dollars in savings. The school board heared so many complaints about the plan to close Van Buren Elementary School, the panel decided against it. The board voted 9-0 Monday evening to keep the builidng open for at least another school year.

After the board delayed the vote weeks ago, Superintendent Jeanne Dangle told CNYcentral, "The goal was to keep communities together. Do it early enough so we can spend the year with our staff and administration who are wonderful people and figure out how do we build transition plans."
