March-April, 2019: With a Fiscal Agent and Architect in place, discussions around options for constructing and funding a new high school have been ongoing.

The design allows for accurate costs, timelines, and/or phasing options as these aspects all depend on how a new Woodford County High School will specifically meet the needs and goals of our students and this community.
