The Peoria Unified School District will take over the building adjacent to one of its high schools that for 17 years housed the Arizona Challenger Space Center.
The district’s governing board approved a land swap with Kevin Knight of the Knight Transportation Group on Thursday.
Knight has been a benefactor for Challenger since it opened in 2000, but the non-profit has been unable to repay him a $3.6 million loan.
