“I feel like the board did not follow the process that they should have,” said Antonia Souza, a parent with kids in the district.
After hundreds of public comments, the Alpine School District board voted to continue with the possible closure of Sharon and Valley View elementary schools by the end of this school year. The board voted to push the possibility of closing Lindon, Lehi, and Windsor elementary schools to the end of the next school year.
“It’s one thing to say 'We’re going to be looking at maybe changing boundaries.' But if you’re using that as your timeline of now the clock begins, but it’s so ambiguous. Has the clock really begun? I don’t think so,” said Rep. Kera Birkeland.“They’re going to have to look at boundary line changes. They’re going to have to look at school closures. I get that — but, you also have to follow the law,” said Sen. Jake Anderegg.
