DPS closures and NR listed schools
Ok, here's the list I've compiled about affected schools from the newly released lists vs. those listed in 2010 on the National Register of Historic Places. Can't promise that this is all-encompassing, as program and building names have changed since even the past year, and in some cases the NR nomination used historical school names which are not in use. Also, a couple schools had been individually listed prior to the big listing in 2010. I recognized Beard Elem. as one of these, but there may be others.
Outright closure in June 2011:
Carleton, Will Elementary [[1946)
Sherill, Edwin Elementary [[1924)
2 of 7
Outright closure in June 2012:
Osborn, Laura High School [[1957)

Candidates for conversion to Charter schools this summer, otherwise closure in June 2011:
Beard Elementary [[1896) [[Listed individually on the NR in 1984 as Garfield Elem.)
