Pastor Eddie Baker said his nonprofit Golden Hills Ranch Inc., plans to turn the building at 9017 N University into a school serving at-risk children ages 10 to 18.

"We're just going to get in there to try to help children and give people jobs," Baker said.

He hopes the school will open in the next six to eight months providing both an education and housing for the children.

Sunset Elementary, 3105 Sunset Blvd., was sold to Sam Gresham for $100,100. That building has been closed since the 1990s.

Willard School, 1400 NW 3, an alternative school before it closed, sold for $40,000 to Ron Walters.

The proposed uses for those buildings were unknown Monday, and board member Lynn Watson requested in the future that bids for the districts remaining 11 properties for sale include the buyer's intent.

Also bidding for the Willard school site was Catholic Charities, which hoped to make the building a shelter for homeless women and children.
