Summary
Dunlow Elementary’s final bell rang this week, sending waves of emotion through the community as the school closes its doors — alongside Genoa Elementary — marking the end of an era. Students will now head to Wayne, Crum, and East Lynn starting next fall. The closures stem from declining enrollment and budget woes, a painful but necessary move for the district. Longtime teachers, including one who taught music and art for 20 years, called it a “special community” and prepared for a bittersweet transition. Even new teachers felt the school’s deep roots. The principal is now seeking proposals for the building’s future, with a June 18 deadline — hoping the legacy of Dunlow lives on in whatever comes next.
