Activist Seeks Approval for Charter School
December 11th, 2012
One community leader wants to help put an end to the violence by working with the school board in hopes of creating a charter school.
Bishop Dwayne Brock tells us the Eagles Nest Charter School would be a school that children grades K through 5 would reside five days a week.
Right now, he is looking to take over the Roosevelt School for the new location at 23-hundred Cranberry Street.
Brock says he's been negotiating with the Erie School Board for a year and at their meeting later on this evening, Brock will be looking for approval for his charter school.
The meeting will take place tonight at 7 pm at East High School. If approved, Brock hopes to open the school in August of 2013.
