Bachman Academy, a preparatory boarding and day school located on South Lee Highway just south of Cleveland, has closed.
It was a decision reached by the Bachman Home board of trustees. Saturday was the official date of the closure.
The academy’s faculty and staff served the school’s students admirably, but despite their many positive achievements, there was no corresponding increase in the student population.
Board chairman Bryson Kirksey said although it is a somber time for all stakeholders involved with the school, “We end with a positive celebration for our four graduates of 2017. As Bachman Academy closes, we rejoice that thousands of children have benefited from our endeavours, and we are proud of the positive impact we have had on their lives.

Last April 3, Cleveland Police responded to a report of a white male passed out in a car at the Sonic on Waterlevel Highway.
An officer tried to nudge and then shake the man, but he remained unresponsive. When the man (Hill) was finally awakened, he said he did not know how he had gotten to the Sonic.
The officer noticed a Sig Sauer 45 caliber automatic pistol on the passenger seat in plain view.
Authorities said Hill has prior convictions for counterfeiting, robbery and possession of drugs for resale.
