Austin, Texas, charter school may be without a home

From The Austin American-Statesman: With less than a month before school starts, an Austin, Texas, charter school with an emphasis on media arts and civics education now needs a new place to teach its students. Officials at iSchool last spring spent $100,000 in renovations on its downtown campus, the entire fifth floor of an office building. But the building's condominium owners association has filed for an injunction to keep the school from opening. The association contends that housing a school there could cause insurance rates to go up and would be a nuisance to other businesses in the building.
