WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. — Students at one Winston-Salem/Forsyth School will temporarily operate out of a new location.
On Monday, board members approved to move Main Street Academy students and staff to the "Family Life Enrichment Center" at St. Peter's World Outreach.
Philo-Hill Magnet Academy Middle School students will be relocating to the Main Street Academy campus to begin the 2023-24 school year during their scheduled renovation, and operations staff have been searching for an alternative site for Main Street students because of previous guidance that both schools' students should not comingle.
The Family Life Enrichment Center at St. Peter's has previously held a charter school capable of hosting 175 students and was determined to be a viable location. The board approved an 18-month lease worth $760,500 by a vote of 6-3.
The tentative term for the temporary lease is 18 months.
Move-in is expected to begin Tuesday.
