Sixty-four percent of the applicants are now in the Little Rock School Dis- trict. North Little Rock, Pulaski County Special and private schools are each providing about 10 percent of the appli- cants.

"Lutheran was the best be- cause it was already a school," Jackson said. "We can use a lot of space they weren't even using.' - The rent would be $25,000 a month for the first year and would rise incrementally over time to $45,000 by the fifth year, according to a "proposal to lease" sent to the state Edu- cation Board. The proposal also includes rental rates for subsequent years. The charter school would have access to the buildings and land used by Lutheran High, as well as furniture, fix- tures and equipment except for team uniforms, student and corporate records, and items of historical or religious significance belonging to cur- rent faculty and staff. Jackson is delighted with the potential arrangement and is quick to point.out that the Lutheran's colors and mascot, burgundy and a lion, are identical to that of Urban Collegiate. Carpet, chairs and curtains are all burgundy. Officials at Lutheran High School, established in 1998, an- nounced in early February that, the school with new facilities would close down at the end of this school year because of declining enrollment. Best prices for gold in Little Rock BRASWELLUSON FINE & ESTATE JEWELRY Lutheran High's enrollment for the 2009-10 academic year is listed at 121 for grades nine through 12, according to the Arkansas Nonpublic School Accrediting Association Inc. directory. It was 127 students in 2008-09, and 149in 2007- 08. In 2004-05, enrollment was 211. , The school faced increased competition in the public and private sectors since its open- ing. Other private and paro- chial schools have opened and/or expanded. Episcopal Collegiate, Little Rock Chris- tian Academy and Pulaski Academy are among the pri- vate schools that have signifi- cantly expanded facilities. Additionally, 11 publicly financed, independently run charter schools have opened throughout Pulaski County since 2000, including the Lisa Academy — also off Markham Street in west.

"Lutheran was the best be- cause it was already a school," Jackson said. "We can use a lot of space they weren't even using.' - The rent would be $25,000 a month for the first year and would rise incrementally over time to $45,000 by the fifth year, according to a "proposal to lease" sent to the state Edu- cation Board. The proposal also includes rental rates for subsequent years. The charter school would have access to the buildings and land used by Lutheran High, as well as furniture, fix- tures and equipment except for team uniforms, student and corporate records, and items of historical or religious significance belonging to cur- rent faculty and staff. Jackson is delighted with the potential arrangement and is quick to point.out that the Lutheran's colors and mascot, burgundy and a lion, are identical to that of Urban Collegiate. Carpet, chairs and curtains are all burgundy. Officials at Lutheran High School, established in 1998, an- nounced in early February that, the school with new facilities would close down at the end of this school year because of declining enrollment.

The Arkansas Board of Education voted 4-2 Monday to permit the site change for the Urban Collegiate Public Charter School for Young Men, which opens for classes July 19 Urban Collegiate, which will serve up to 596 boys in kindergarten through eighth grades, initially planned to. open in a former GMC deal- ership building at 4601 S.

Interim Director Joseph Lamps conceders to trustees that museum leadership has been distracted by new atten- the fiscal year, June 30. Center leadership is look- ing ooking to the future, and has been bringing new finance chief Laine Harber up to speed, Lampo told trustees. Longtime Chief Financial officer Rocky Nickles was fired in January. Nickles' per - estimated that 300,000 people would see the show, which opened Sept. 25 and runs through July 5. At $22 for an adult ticket, the show was ex- pected to generate millions in revenue. But the exhibit has drawn only a fraction of the expected cost $5.1 million to bring that buildingInto compliance with building codes. The 4.5 -mile move to 6711 W. Markham St. puts the new charter school in the 72205 zip code area, away from the mostly low -achieving and black students the school's of- ficials have recruited to date from the 72204, 72209 and 72206 zip code areas. The change in location to a more affluent part of the city comes at a time when the. tittle Rock School Hoard has voted to sue state officials _for approving charter schools in Pulaski County without re- gard to their effect on deseg- regation efforts in traditional public schools. .
