Ocean Shore School has been in the community for more than 50 years but now, the future of the K-8 school is uncertain.
'I was absolutely blindsided,' Debbie Enriquez, a parent, told CBS News Bay Area. Enriquez has two children who attend Ocean Shore. 'This school has seen not only other families but my family go through several hard times. There are a number of parents who not only look out for their children but for my kids,' Enriquez said. The Pacifica School District said they have a $3.5 million structural budget deficit due to factors like declining enrollment and rising program costs.
Students like Spencer MacDougall said he and his siblings don't want to part ways from the program.'I learned a lot with my friends, they let you do group projects and specifically Oceans411. You can group up with your friends and teach, younger kids the things that you know. And it's just everyone gets a good learning experience out of here,' MacDougall said.
