At a special meeting tonight, the Indiana Area School Board is scheduled to enact the 2024-25 budget, which will total $65.4 million and include a 6.8 percent real estate tax increase.
The board will also consider a motion to close the Horace Mann Elementary School, and a separate motion to lease a portion of the building to Merakey Incorporated, an educational company catering to special needs services for school-age and adult students.
At a presentation before the board last month, Merakey said it would use Horace Mann for autistic and emotional support services for school-age students, and it also could be interested in buying the Horace Mann building next year.
