Charter school moves forward with plans to move into Clay after ruling
SOUTH BEND — Career Academy Network of Public Schools (CANOPS) officials say they're moving forward with plans to move Career Academy High School into the former Clay High School building for the 2028-29 school year, following the court decision requiring South Bend schools to make the building available for purchase or lease. This follows the Oct. 26 announcement that a judge sided with Career Academy in a years-long legal battle over Clay, reversing an earlier decision that said SBCSC could retain ownership of the building. During a press conference Oct. 29, CANOPS CEO Jeremy Lugbill said the network plans to move Career Academy from its current building it shares with the middle school into Clay, to be ready to open for the start of the 2028-29 school year. State law requires a school district that closes a public school to sell or lease the building for $1 to a charter school that says it wants to buy or lease the building. The middle school would stay in the current building, at 3810 Crescent Circle. "We are cramped from a space standpoint," Lugbill said of the current arrangement, adding that students are looking forward to having a gym, more classroom space
