Salt Lake School for the Performing Arts needs more money, more students and crucially, a new sponsor — or it will be forced to close in June.
The state charter school board and Salt Lake City School District have cited enrollment and financial concerns with the Salt Lake School for the Performing Arts.
But her SPA sophomore and many other students there may have to seek other options — as the public charter doesn’t currently have a required sponsor, and may be forced to close. If SPA does not find a new sponsor by June, by state law, the school will have to close, said the state charter board’s executive director, Paul Kremer.At the March 21 meeting, board members criticized the school district and were concerned that the state charter board would be “ Salt Lake School District’s responsibility to do what’s right.”, the termination of its authorization of SPA was set to end this school year, as discussed “over the past several years.
But last year, the district declined to renew SPA’s lease at the former elementary building, which had high maintenance needs and had “reached the end of its life,” district spokesperson Yándary Chatwin said. SPA moved downtown to the old Oquirrh School building, located on 350 S. 400 East, which means “the symbiotic relationship between Highland and SLSPA no longer exists,” Kearsley wrote., which includes six tennis courts and one combined, artificial field for both soccer and lacrosse.
