I will be doing my final paper on the closing of Owen Elementary School. I chose to do my photo essay on this topic as well. The closing of Owen was a recent event and it greatly affected my community. It was closed due to a failed attempt to pass a bond for Trenton schools. Students were forced to switch to one of the other elementary schools. This caused more students to be attending each school. Here is a website telling more about the closing of the school.

The bond, which was failed to pass, also affected the high school in Trenton. The bond was for 2 new elementary schools and technology upgrades. Because the bond did not pass, Trenton schools did not get an upgrade in technology. The schools are forced to use out of date technology which affects education greatly.
