NEW: Hundreds of South Bay students will be looking for a new school to attend next fall as the board for Summit Public Schools voted Thursday night to close the Denali campus in Sunnyvale.
Parents and teachers in Sunnyvale are protesting the possible closure of a charter school with two campuses that would leave more than 600 students looking for new classrooms.
Summit Denali, which serves middle and high school students, is run by Summit Public Schools. The two campuses serve about 650 students., a letter to parents indicated the school's loss of pandemic-era federal funds and the loss of state funds have forced Summit Denali to consider closing the two campuses.
According to a report to the Santa Clara County Board of Education, which oversees charter schools, Summit Denali on Jan. 6 gave notice of a possible closure. The charter school has had clean financial audits but operated in the red since opening about 10 years ago.Sign up for NBC Bay Area’s Housing Deconstructed newsletter.
