Redistricting decision could come Thursday

The New Hanover County School Board has scheduled an interim meeting next week to talk about middle school redistricting. A spokesperson says it’s possible the Board could make a decision on a final plan. The debate about redistricting has centered on whether to keep students in schools closer to home or to bus students around the county to help with socioeconomic diversity.

The meeting is Thursday at 5 p.m. at the Dale K. Spencer Building on South 15th Street in Wilmington.
