A request for funding to add new schools to the Rutherford County education system is a top priority as the community continues to grow. Trey Lee, Assistant Superintendent of Engineering with Rutherford County Schools stated...
The next scheduled Health and Education Committee meeting will be held this month on March 24th in the County Courthouse at 5:30 PM.
If all goes as planned, a new elementary school will be built in the Christiana / Buchanan area and adding onto Roy Waldron and LaVergne Middle Schools by 2022.
• The schools have a 5 year plan that includes an offer already made on a parcel of land currently owned by the City of Murfreesboro.
• There is said to be a TWO school need currently in the Blackman area, the fastest growing area of Rutherford County.
• The cost to build the next high school will likely be in the ballpark of $80 million.
