RALEIGH, N.C. -- By a vote of 5-3, the Wake County school board agreed to a plan that would convert one-third of the county's elementary schools to a year-round schedule to ease the school system's overwhelming growth.

Earlier Tuesday evening, board members rejected 6-2 a year-round school proposal that would have converted almost all the county's elementary schools to year-round schedules and would have kept the school construction bond issue under $1 billion.
