The School Committee this week approved school reorganization plan that closes fewer schools than originally proposed by Superintendent Carole Johnson, but which opens some new programs but no single-sex school. Details.

On Nov. 19, the committee is scheduled to vote on making the Haley School in Roslindale a pilot school, turning the Mary Lyon School in Brighton into a K-12 school and letting the Boston Teachers Union open a K-8 pilot school in Jamaica Plain. The committee will also discussion Johnson's proposal to close the Dickerman, Stone and P.A. Shaw elementary schools in Dorchester, the Boston International High School building in Jamaica Plain, Hamilton Elementary School in Brighton and Higginson Elementary School in Roxbury.
