Employees of a Idaho boarding school are out of a job.
C-E-D-U Educational Services couldn't make its payroll last week at a Bonners Ferry school -- and the company blamed a lack of financing.
Spokeswoman Julia Andrick says about 301 students -- mostly from out of state -- will be sent home. And Kathryn Tacke with Idaho Commerce and Labor says about 260 higher-wage jobs will be lost.
The organization, started as a charity by a Palm Springs, Calif. businessman Mel Wasserman, runs boarding schools and wilderness programs for troubled kids.
