[Observing]

Unless you have a BUNCH of money to keep them open, they (or you) won't really have a vote on the issue. Jackson City would simply close down because of lack of operating revenue, and the kids would be absorbed into the local public county system. I guess they could choose to go to Oakdale, Riverside, or Mt. Carmel if they didn't want to attend Breathitt.

It could come to that, but it may be that they simply have to scale
down and revert to an enrollement and staff closer to the size they
were about 15 years ago. I have no particular knowledge, but I'd say
the smart money is they won't close or consolidate any time in
the next 5 years.
