 The Trek North Charter school was was set to expand from a junior to and senior high to a full K through 12 school, but a delayed land deal may put the project on hold. Trek North currently has 240 students and is located along Paul Bunyan Drive Northwest. The plan was to expand and build a K through 5 school on the same property adjacent from its current building. However, the property owner doesn't intend to sell the property any time this year, creating the need to determine how important it is to have the K through 5 program starting in the 2018-2019 school year. It's not that we need to open it in 2018 at all costs. The top priority is to open a really highly successful program where parents are going to be excited to bring their kids. Kids are going to feel safe. Kids are going to learn. So that's the top priority. If Trek North is unable to purchase the site where the school is currently located, there is a possibility that the school could be relocated.
