East Palo Alto — After spending over two hours going back-and-forth on potential alternatives, Ravenswood City School District trustees decided in several contentious votes to close two elementary schools.

The decision to move forward with plans to merge Willow Oaks Elementary School and Brentwood Academy into the district’s three remaining campuses comes as school officials face historically low enrollment numbers and a massive budget deficit amid changing demographics in the East Palo Alto and west Menlo Park communities.
