At the board meeting, the district outlined various scenarios for potential consolidations and closures.

FORT COLLINS, Colo. — Families congregated outside the Poudre School District's board meeting on Tuesday, united in an effort to defend their schools.

"It was a total surprise, and therefore our families in our community haven't had a chance to prepare and advocate for our program," said Liliana Deal, a third-grade teacher at Harris Elementary School."There is one other bilingual school here. In our district, it's a different model completely. Our model doesn't function that way."

“No final decisions have been made, and the process is not complete,” the district said in a statement.
