The doors of 5 elementary schools in Alpine School District may be closing for good at the end of the school year due to seismic concerns.
The results of the boundary study proposed that Lehi, Valley View, Lindon, Windsor and Sharon elementary schools — all of which are in the unreinforced masonry inventory — be considered for closure.
Additionally, the district is hosting open houses for parents and community members to share feedback and also has an online option for doing so. A schedule of the open houses and links to submit feedback can be found"We've received more than 1,000 different individual pieces of feedback so far and the school board is reviewing that feedback," Stephenson said.
"It's a hard thing when you hear that the school that you attended, that your child attended and that your grandchild is attending now is potentially going to be closed and that is a concern that we've obviously heard," Stephenson said, emphasizing the need to weigh those concerns with the safety of students and staff in seismically vulnerable buildings.
"Please reconsider your proposal to close Lehi Elementary this year. If our school must be closed, please consider sending all of our students to Meadow Elementary, which I believe is going to be a safer and a better long-term decision," McAllister said.
