Legacy Traditional School – Northwest purchased the building it is in from developer and lender, The Charter School Fund- Oro Valley LLC, an affiliate of The Charter School Fund in Boise, ID (Jason Kotter and Ryan Van Alfen, founders) for[mepr-show rules="58038"]$15.5 million ($244 PSF). The 63, 761-square-foot school in four buildings, is located at 3500 West Cortaro Farms Road in Marana. The school was built in 2011 and 2012 on 19 acres northeast of Thornydale on Cortaro Farms.
The property was build-to-suit for Legacy Traditional (K-8 grades) by Charter School Fund, a specialized school developer that goes beyond just picking out a pretty building and some charter school land.
Aaron Hale, Executive Director of Legacy Traditional School says, “We have been very satisfied with our relationship with The Charter School Fund over the last few years. They have built a number of buildings for us, each with a high quality of workmanship. Jason and Ryan are great to work with and completely honest. We know that if we ever have an issue, we can go to them and they will do their best to resolve it. They have built us some of the nicest charter school facilities in the state, at a time when others were having a hard time even locating financing. It is our pleasure to continue working with them as we expand our schools.”
