The Sulphur Springs Union School District and Tri Pointe Homes have entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (PSA) for a parcel of land located in the Skyline community in Santa Clarita.

After the land is transferred, the Sulphur Springs Union School District will construct a new elementary school on the site to serve the district’s growing Skyline area.

This significant achievement is the result of hard work and dedication not only from the Board, but also from Superintendent Dr. Kawaguchi, and many others who have supported us through the process. Together, we are  excited to take this important step forward in fulfilling our commitment to providing the best  possible educational environment for our students and families.”

Tom Grable, the Division President of Tri Pointe Homes OC-LA, stated, “We are proud of our history with the Skyline community, including the homes that we have built and are continuing to build, as well as the opening of the Skyline Ranch Park earlier this year. We are very happy to be a part of this stage in the development of a new elementary school in Skyline. We wish the  Sulphur Springs Union School District well in building the new school once the land has been transferred and look forward to seeing the new school when it has been completed.”

The PSA outlines the terms of the land purchase, including the purchase price, closing date, and conditions precedent. The District will continue the process of securing necessary permits and approvals for the construction of the new school.
