Boston Preparatory Charter Public School has filed formal plans with the city to build a permanent school in Hyde Park for an estimated $24.5 million.
The college preparatory middle and high school, which has been leasing the former Most Precious Blood parochial school in Hyde Park since its 2004 founding, plans a three-story, approximately 48,000-square-foot school about a mile away at 875 River St., across from the Shops at Riverwood plaza.
"The new building will provide many program areas and design features that BPCPS does not have in its current leased facility, including dedicated science labs, a library, small-group instructional spaces, a gym, cafeteria, outdoor athletic space and seamless technology integration," according to plans filed with the Boston Redevelopment Authority.
The school, which accepts students in grades 6 through 12 through a public lottery, has about 400 enrolled, primarily low-income minority youths from Hyde Park, Dorchester, Mattapan and Roxbury.
It is raising equity through a capital campaign and plans to finance the rest of the privately funded project through a bank, according to executive director Sharon Liszanckie.
"All public charter schools get a per-pupil rate (of funding from the Department of Education) ... and we get a small allocation for facilities spending, but we don't get any money at all to support the building and construction," she said.
Another Boston charter school, the 17-year-old music-oriented Conservatory Lab Charter School, also has plans for a new school in Roxbury that would replace two temporary locations in Brighton and Dorchester for about 450 pre-kindergarten through eighth-grade students.
