Whatever happened to the property the district owned on the Clover Park Technical College campus?
In the early 1990s, the state legislature removed technical colleges from the K-12 system and placed them within the higher education system. As part of the separation agreement, Clover Park School District owns the AI High School site and the food services commissary site. However, the district had to move out of other buildings on the campus once the college moved its aircraft programs to Thun Field in Puyallup. The state, as part of the separation agreement, provided a one-time allocation for the renovation of a former aircraft hanger to be utilized as the district’s transportation, maintenance, technical services center or Auxiliary Service Center (ASC). The property, by law, had to be utilized for this purpose or the funds would be recovered. This renovation was complete and the district has relocated programs to the ASC in 2002.
