The school made the announcement Wednesday morning in an email. In the message to staff and parents, the school cited the COVID-19 pandemic as one of the factors leading to the decision.

“We are forced to make this decision due to the financial impact of the recent coronavirus situation which, in combination with several other factors, have made it impossible for us to continue,” wrote the school. “We will of course complete this year as scheduled.”

Why does COVID 19 make a school close for good? Kids are learning online and parents have to still pay

the key word is ” in combination with several other factors” – financial is one of them but there had to be bigger factors , maybe they werent able to recruit a full 9th , maybe the board is not so invested they just helping out the school
bottom line do the other schools have the space , its a challenge for these kids on top of everything else
