I didn't know that there was such a push for each county to only have one school system.I think the number of school systems across the state is down to 105 or 106, and the NCGA is leaning on one of the big remaining city systems (Asheville City Schools) to consolidate with Buncombe County.
Another I know a little about is in my home county -Davidson- where Lexington City Schools are holding our for fear of diluting minority presence. The city schools are majority minority both in student population and school board membership, and they fear that if they merge the minority students will get lost in their new environments and the supportive environment they've created for themselves over many generations will be lost as well.
If that's the case, how in the heck does Catawba County still have 3 different school systems?
