Comments about ‘South Salt Lake tweaks ordinance on split of Granite’

Creating this bizarre district boundary is impractical and will not reserve enough students to keep Cottonwood High School open. Cottonwood would still lose nearly half of its east side boundary to Holladay. The east-side district split proponents want to keep their Holladay students to maintain Olympus and Skyline enrollments, as those schools' resident student populations continue to decline.

It appears that this "narrow neck of land" proposal is no more than a ploy to place the blame for Cottonwood High's eventual demise in the lap of Granite School District, should the district split occur.
