Palouse Prairie Charter School granted charter
June 26, 2008, 3:58 pm
School officials hope to locate the four-classroom facility at 321 E. Palouse River Drive — the current location of Now & Then — and have the school open for students in August 2009.
Nils Peterson, chairman of the Palouse Prairie board of directors, said the school expects to enroll 75 students for its inaugural year.
The school’s previous attempts at securing a charter were denied because of concerns related to its budget and the lack of a suitable facility.
Peterson said the school still must secure a conditional use permit from the city of Moscow and address several remodeling issues before it can be opened.
“It’s been three and half years getting this far and we are excited to finally get out of the starting gates,” Peterson said. “This was not a one person show, this was a team effort.”
