Parents of children at Orange Grove Elementary School who were alarmed at the thought that their school was on a list of possible closures tried to enlist some heavy duty support last week. Calling the school a "hidden gem of the city of Seminole," they asked the Seminole City Council to pass a resolution asking that Pinellas superintendent Clayton Wilcox spare the school. The Council has not taken any action, but the city is monitoring the situation.
