Another Chicago charter school network has decided to close one of its schools, citing falling enrollment, increasing costs and inadequate funding.
The ASPIRA network, which operates three publicly funded but privately managed charters under Chicago Public Schools, approved closure of its ASPIRA Haugan Middle School campus by a unanimous 6-0 board vote Wednesday.
Located in Albany Park on the Northwest Side, the school enrolls 89 students in grades 6 to 8 this year and is set to close at the end of June.
