Personally, I do not think it is necessary to close schools in Alaska. Here are the reasons why:
First, how would you feel if you were really attached to one of those schools, and it just closed down?
The second reason is if you were one of those school’s old students, you would probably be really sad.
The last reason is there are simple solutions to the problem. Like raising money, charging more taxes and putting taxes on oil companies.—
