Perry/Buckhorn consolidation

The travel argument doesn't even hold up a year after kids in K-8 from Leatherwood were sent 25 miles to R.W. Combs. You could keep Buckhorn open K-8 and move the high school kids and that would match up with what other counties across the state have done for years.

I'm just saying consolidating Buckhorn into Perry Central has not been a serious conversation, but Just like Robinson's consolidation hasn't been a serious conversation. I can't speak to the particulars but if it was just a logistics issue it would have happened a long time ago. Perry has consolidated Dennis Wooton, AB Combs, Big Creek, Lost Creek and Chavies into East and West Perry so they aren't immune to consolidation. They're set to consolidate Viper and RW into South Perry. At that point you'll have East Perry, West Perry, South Perry, Perry Central and then Buckhorn and Robinson.

Not that it matters, but the Leatherwood kids were sent to Viper and that's more like 12 miles. They'll all head out to Highway 15 once South Perry is finished anyway.
