Designed to accommodate 2,600 students, the new school will address overcrowding and provide modern learning environments that support 21st-century instruction. The project includes updated core spaces, enhanced safety features, energy-efficient systems, and dedicated areas for career and technical education. Once complete, the new building will expand access to high-quality educational opportunities for students in the northern area of the county.
