My son attends a private school. We just re-enrolled him for the 2016-2017 school year last month and signed all the paperwork committing to the school for the entire year. Enrollment fee was paid at that time. Last week the school informed the entire student body and parents that they were closing the school at the end of the current school year in May (2016), giving us less than 2 months to find new schools and transfer our childrens' transcripts while most schools in the area (no private schools) have finalized their student enrollment for the upcoming year already. My questions are A) can the board of directors legally do this and B) doesn't this qualify as breach of contract on their part? If so, can I fight it?

It would depend upon when the school new they were going to close. Was there a negative financial event that took place. I would want to see the contract. It may be that if you have to pay more at a new school then you were paying at this school they could be liable for the difference. There may be other damages as well. I would need to see the contract. If you would like to call and discuss it my number is 818 345 0123.
