Community High School District 155 hopes to sell the Haber Oaks Campus building.

Superintendent Steve Olson said the facility, 400 Haber Road in Cary, is “move-in ready.”

However, because no one has bid on the building, the District 155 board voted Tuesday to allow officials to look for a real estate agent and market the space.

“We were taking applications. I think we have four to six,” Olson said. “Hopefully in the next week, I would like to think that we’ll have somebody. ... We tried to do it on our own, and unfortunately it didn’t work out for us, so now we’re going down that path.”

In February, the board voted to close Haber Oaks, an alternative school that housed a therapeutic day program to provide a self-contained educational setting for special education students with significant emotional and/or behavioral challenges, according to the district.

It was projected to save the district about $70,000 a year, according to district documents.

The board approved $700,000 in renovations to the first floor of Crystal Lake South High School, where Haber Oaks students were relocated for this school year.

The main Haber Oaks building sits on about 3 acres of land, which includes a storage facility.

“We’ve kept it up because kids were there,” Olson said, adding that the district only will accept a minimum of $700,000. “It’s what I would consider move-in ready for somebody.”

The real estate agent’s commission would be no greater than 7 percent, according to district documents. The building must be sold within 120 days.

Last week, the district’s Operations Committee discussed the possibility of selling the administration building.

The building,1 S. Virginia Road, is in need of major repairs and improvements.

Olson said it would be premature to sell it.

“I personally think it’s a little premature at this point, given how we’ve taken back some specialized programs into our buildings,” Olson said, adding that the administration building is being used by staff for teacher development on nights and weekends. “Our buildings are staffed at about a 75 [percent] to 80 percent staffing rate. That’s pretty typical for high schools.”
