The Utah State Charter School Board plans to recommend that the Utah Board of Education approve seven new public charter schools to open in the 2009-10 school year, plus allow expansion in enrollment and grades in nine existing schools. The public charter school board had received requests that would have created space for 9,000 students, but it is restricted by law from approving growth exceeding 1.4 percent of the previous year's public school enrollment, which meant it could approve requests for no more than 7,300 students. "There are a limited number of seats, and schools are competing for those," board chairwoman Julie Adamic said.
