After the Childs Street School burned down, the school district decided to sell the property rather than rebuild the structure. St. Joseph's parish council president Fechtel was able to secure two buildings, one was the former Childs Street School cafeteria (which became the Saint Joseph's parish hall), and a second building was made available to the Model Cities Head Start program.
