The school closed at the end of the 2010–2011 academic year due to insufficient funding. History 
Founded by educator Linda Houghton, the school opened September 5, 1998. It was threatened with closure in 2005 when its original parent company, Brown Schools, declared bankruptcy, but school officials and parents raised funds to keep the school open. Subsequently, it became part of Universal Health Services. In May 2011, school head Gerard Jones announced that due to lack of sufficient funding, the school would close on June 4, 2011, after graduating its last class. The King George School had enrolled a total of more than 250 students during its history. The property was up for sale in 2021. References
