Lincoln County parents and two
anti-consolidation groups have filed a lawsuit
seeking to block a state plan to combine the
county's four high schools.
Proposed is a new $30 million school, the most expensive ever built in West Virginia.
The Committee to Stop Discrimination
Against Rural Children, the Save Harts High
committee and parents whose children
attend Hamlin, Harts, Duval and Guyan
Valley high schools, have filed the suit in Kanawha County.
Named as defendants are Lincoln County
Superintendent Bill Grizzell, state
Superintendent David Stewart and the state
school board.
The suit seeks to maintain community based schools which the groups say produces a better education.
