PEORIA - Edison Schools Inc. will continue running four of District 150's schools for at least another year, after the majority of the School Board voted Monday against a recommendation to end the company's contract. Superintendent Ken Hinton has proposed the contract be terminated and the district implement an alternative model at the four schools run by Edison.
