Mercer County Board could back high school plan over junior high
Princeton rumors say a Mercer County Board of Education session may endorse constructing a new high school adjoining the Vocational Technical Center on Stafford Drive rather than a junior high on the former Seaway Container site. Residents favor a newer school to ease split schedules, while others note WVEA reps eye regional offices here and debate over a female officer looms amid civil service reviews. Special entertainment at Glenwood Park features the Hillsman Quartet and Crestman Quartet at 2 p.m. Sunday to promote the county park.
