Mark's School Rowland Hall-St- . officials Wednesday announced a major expansion of their school to meet enrollment growth and maintain standards. The private school has leased the former Roosevelt Junior High School, 843 S. Lincoln St. (940 East), from the Salt Lake City School District for a five-yeperiod. Headmaster A. Thomas Jackson said the Upper School grades sevwill be located in en through 12 the Roosevelt school when fall classes start Sept. 4 this year. The move will provide more space for the school's younger students at the existing school site at 205 1st Ave., which will undergo remodeling. "We are committed to the intellectual, moral and physical development of each student, he said, "and this will better enable us to follow this commitment. Peter W. Billings Jr., chairman of the Long Range Planning Committee of the schools board of trustees, said the move will provide more space at the First Avenue school for computer rooms, a remodeled cafeteria and gymnasium, and other educational facilities. He said the leasing of the Roosevelt School will provide enough space to serve up to 600 students the schools projected near term Marks growth. Rowland Hall-S- t. now serves 450 students. The old junior high school has two gymnasiums, a large library, a theater, and many classrooms. Last year, Mr. Jackson said, physical plant limitations forced the school to turn down 80 qualified students seeking enrollment. Mr. Billings said the school will pay the Salt Lake City district $83,000 a year plus utilities for use of the building. He said the school may renew the lease or purchase the building outright if the Salt Lake City Board of Education agrees or move. Wayne Evans, president of the school board, praised the lease agreement, saying it is beneficial to both the private school and the school district. Competition is good for us. As private schools improve in quality, it goads the public schools to do so. This is good for the total community, Mr. Evans said of the lease agreement. The Rev. E. Otis Charles, bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Utah, said the schools leasing of the Roosevelt School represents Rowland Hall-St- . Marks continuing reassessment of how it can best meet its commitment to educational excellence. .vi.ny Marks repre"Rowland Hall-S- t. sents 127 years of educational excellence, said the bishop, who serves as president of the schools board of trustees As the state has changed, weve continually reassessed our educational commitment to the community. Were very excited about the open to us by the availability of this school, said Bishop Charles. Outlining the recent history be hind the schools decision to lease the Roosevelt School, Mr. Billings said committee members spent more than a year discussing the school, its mission and future with students, faculty, parents, and other interested parties. He said the possibility of leasing the Roosevelt School then arose and the arrangements were consummated last month with the school boards approval of the lease Jan. 17 and the trustees following suit on The consensus reached from the discussions was that the physical plant needed improvement, and options were to extensively remodel the existing facility or move to a new area and build from scratch, which he said was ruled out because of cost. It would take $8 million to $10 million for on-sit- e Jon 1 0 "Although we would like to buy it, the school board will lease it for five years It gives us flexibility and we can spend some money to improve the Lower School, Mr. Billings said. remodeling, which would take us at least several years to raise, said Mr. Billings.
