Parents and residents turned out in force in DeKalb County on Monday to hear school board plans to reorganize schools. The board is considering a five-year plan from Superintendent Cheryl Atkinson.
The plan would close some schools and renovate others to accommodate more students.

The school board plans other public forums before it makes a final decision next month.
