About 50 people, many of them Robberson Elementary School parents spoke their minds to the Springfield school district Thursday night.
It was the final chance for the public to comment on the district's plan to change some school boundaries.
The district has listened to public comment for several months.
Out of all of the complaints in the review, most of them criticized the idea of closing Robberson Elementary.
"I think they're definitely listening and I think it definitely matters. I mean honest. Just like on the election thing, they say everyone should vote and it definitely makes a difference on school board issues as well," said Darrell Dillon, who spoke at the meeting. He is not a parent but is concerned about Robberson.
Robberson parents have suggested several options to closing their children's school.
A final report will be presented to the board in November.
