“No one was jumping up and down saying, ‘This is a great idea, and yup, close our schools,’” a district official said, adding that he knows “it’s more than a building ... it’s more than that because of the people that are inside of it.”
In 2019, a committee of district employees and parents hadof M. Lynn Bennion Elementary, located near downtown at 429 S. 800 East. While school board members did not close Bennion then, its enrollment has continued to decline. It was on last year’s proposed study list and is on the new one.
People said they recognized the need to consider closing schools and changing boundaries, but no one wanted their own schools to be studied for potential closure, Conley said. “It’s more than that because where those great teachers are, wherever those students that are full of character and charisma, wherever they’re going to school, that’s going to be the community that they’re a part of.”
She said that the process is about “creating a community in a geographic space,” and that she understood the angst and difficulty of it as she was principal of Lowell Elementary school when it closed in 2004.
