I haven't seen these in the North East in 30 or so years. I'm sure they are still in areas but most of these went away.
At least in our part of the north east, they’ve gone away because there are less kids in the schools. Enrollment and birthdates are both way down in our small towns. Ann my Moms town has closed 2 of the 5 elementary schools.
My wife teaches in one.
