Middletown Starts $2,500,000 School Construction Program
Middletown will begin a $2.5 million school development plan immediately after the Board of Education approved all projects by a large vote. Superintendent Wade E. Miller said bond sales must be arranged first, while lighter tasks like lighting for elementary buildings may be completed early. Planning for the stadium is largely done, but sites for South School and Highview Road remain undecided, prompting further deliberation and a district dinner following the two hour meeting.
