County Eyes 5 Million Bond for School Construction
The county legislative delegation in Annapolis backs a 5 million dollar school bond as the likely approved amount for next year. County officials outlined needs for Thomas Johnson High School, a Thurmont Emmitsburg consolidated high school, and a Middle Town Valley elementary school, with a 7 million option considered but uncertain. The General Assembly must approve county bonds, and a decision on the final amount is expected after meetings with lawmakers.
