The Philomath School District and Philomath Youth Activities Club have signed a facility-use agreement that will provide a new home for the district’s student services office and its special education transition program. The agreement allows the school district to use PYAC’s building at 401 S. 19th St. rent-free while the youth organization works toward a major facilities expansion. Superintendent Susan Halliday approached the School Board at its Jan. 8 meeting to request authority to negotiate the agreement with PYAC. The school district will move its student services office — which includes Director Kelsey Greydanus and two staffers — from the high school to the 19th Street location. The facility-use agreement with the school district includes a stipulation regarding building maintenance.
