Measure E was defeated when it failed to garner the required two-thirds majority; however, the school did reopen in fall 2010.

Famous quotes containing the word threatened:
“[He] didn’t dare to, because his father had a weak heart and habitually threatened to drop dead if anybody hurt his feelings. You may have noticed that people with weak hearts are the tyrants of English married life.”
