Lund School Board Decides To Continue Lund School For Now

Iron County School Board met Monday to consider closing Lund school and moving students to Cedar City. The board voted to keep Lund open for the current year but to shift transportation next year, citing need to overhaul the transportation plan and buy a new bus. Lund hosts 13 students with high school-age pupils seeking placement elsewhere. A teacher vacancy arises as Shelby Bentley plans a mission for LDS church. The board allowed Cedar City Homecoming bands to participate and let Lund students attend Friday events. Parowan High will close Friday due to the large band and agricultural student participation. The district will seek part time elementary supervision after Miss Margaret Williams resignation, rather than hire a full-time supervisor, and James Robb resigned to join Branch Agricultural College defense classes.
