EUGENE, Ore. (AP) — An Oregon charter school looking for a permanent home in Eugene has gotten a one-year extension from the city.
The Register-Guard reported the city has agreed that Network Charter School can stay at its current downtown Eugene location for another school year, if it adds some fire safety features and procedures to protect students and staff.
Network serves about 120 students in grades 7 to 12, and has been in a former office space for six years.
About two years ago, the city of Eugene concluded it didn’t meet building code for use as a school and Network Charter School officials have been looking for a space to buy or lease.
