Joint Statement from Buffalo Public Schools Superintendent Pascal Mubenga and Board of Education President Dr. Kathy Evans-Brown on School Closures
“We have decided not to close any Buffalo Public Schools after reviewing the recommendations of the school closure committee to close PS 3 and PS 90 and after feedback from staff, families, students, and community members. As part of the regular budget process, the superintendent will instead present the Board of Education with an alternative plan to address the anticipated financial challenges facing the district in the 2026–2027 school year. We will also work to retain a professional management consultant to review and make recommendations about potential school closures in future school years. We have also informed the Buffalo Board of Education members of our decision. We also thank the members of the school closure committee for their time, efforts and recommendations.”
