There are several factors that cause schools to close. The main one is probably a severe reduction in student body. Without the students, there isn't enough to justify keeping the building running, paying the rent or mortgage, utilities, insurance, teacher salaries, etc.

Another reason could be faulty administration and poorly-qualified teachers.

A third reason could be demographics. Maybe the school is located in a less-than-safe area, or in a section of town known for its high crime rate. Maybe parents don't want to send their kids to a particular district where there are gang-related activities.

Lack of parental involvement also plays a part in the standard of the school.

Lack of sufficient funding is often at the core of this situation.

And finally, a low scholastic rating could also influence the closure of an academic facility. Something could be amiss here. Perhaps the administration and/or staff are just not doing their job according to national standards.

All of the above are contributing factors; however they can be corrected through the cooperation of the government, the community, the parents, the students themselves, and the teachers.

I hope these reasons will give you further insight for your term paper. Good luck.
