Mountainville Academy is a public charter school in Alpine, Utah, with students from Kindergarten to ninth grade. It was founded in 2006 by local parents who wanted to provide greater choice in education for their children. The school's beginnings were controversial. In 2006, as Alpine City was reviewing its proposed location, the planning commissioners voted unanimously not to approve the proposed site, and residents presented petitions also opposing the location. Even though the city did not have authority to prevent the building of the school, the founders, in an effort to foster better relations with the city and residents, found another site for the school. The area of rural Utah in which the school is located was originally called "Mountainville". The school retains this name, and its building was designed to be reminiscent of the area's first school house, a red brick building built in 1899 and torn down in 1968. == References == ;Sources *http://www.alpinecity.org *http://www.alpinecity.org/Agendas_and_minutes/Mar2106.pc.pdf 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mountainville Academy」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
