Kairos Academy will remain closed after administrators abandoned their plans to contest the school’s termination.

The Utah Board of Education announced Wednesday that a Sept. 5 hearing for the West Valley City charter school had been cancelled, due to the school withdrawing its appeal of a July closure vote of the State Charter School Board.

“Staff from Kairos Academy, the Utah State Charter School Board, and the Utah State Board of Education are working with nearby school districts and charter schools to find appropriate placement for students who had been attending Kairos,” the Board of Education‘s announcement states.
