PORT ANGELES — While North Olympic Peninsula Skills Center officials wade through construction delays they are also scrambling to increase enrollment numbers to meet state funding requirements.
Officials were given a one-year extension this spring by state Superintendent of Public Instruction Terry Bergeson to meet the 150 full-time equivalent student minimum enrollment average at the center.
Skills center enrollment for the month of October is averaging about 121.8 full-time-equivalent students, said Port Angeles School District Superintendent Gary Cohn.
Officials have until June to reach the state-mandated goal.
