How can they object to sharing campus?

This has to do with the Monday Herald article headlined “Home-school parents oppose sharing campus in Edmonds.” As reported, an unnamed private home-schooling couple is suing the Edmonds School District over its normal practice of temporally moving a high school onto the old Woodway High School site while their new school is being constructed.

I don’t get it. What is a private school doing in the public school in the first place? Do the private home schools pay rent to the Edmonds School District? If not, what do they have to complain about?
