New Northern Middle opens in Calvert County

Calvert public schools’ Superintendent Marcus Newsome noted it had been 22 months since his predecessor and other school and community leaders did the traditional moving of dirt with golden shovels. And now the new Northern Middle School has opened for learning. The project, which was slowed by weather and challenges in obtaining building materials, cost nearly $60 million, which was a combination of state and county funds. The three-story, 109,237-square-foot building, co-located with Northern High on Chaneyville Road in Owings, can accommodate 800 students. With its current enrollment at 715 there’s room for more, although it’s still Calvert County’s most populous middle school. “It takes every department in the school system to make this happen,” the superintendent said during his monthly report to the Calvert County school board Nov. 5. In a matter of hours, the new building went from being a storage site for unopened boxes and bare shelves into a new school. Newsome credited school staff, assisted by honor students from Northern High, with the move from the old school to the new building. “It’s looking amazing,” Ruth Ollie Reist, a Northern High junior and current student member of the board, said of the new facility. Reist was

New stretch of FDR Boulevard opens in St. Mary’s

The new phase of FDR Boulevard might just be the best one yet, according to project engineer Allen Settle. On Tuesday afternoon, the St. Mary’s County commissioners and representatives from the department of public works and transportation hosted a ribbon-cutting ceremony to celebrate the newest extension of FDR Boulevard, which officially opened to drivers the following day. “Today is an opportunity to recognize just how far we’ve come,” Commissioner President Randy Guy (R) said. “The vision for FDR Boulevard has always been about more than building another road. It’s about creating a strong, more connected transportation network that meets the needs of our residents today while preparing our community for the future.” The roadway, which starts at St. Andrew’s Church Road in California, now stretches down past Buck Hewitt Road to Pegg Road in Lexington Park. A separate portion of the road from Great Mills Road to Shangri-La Drive in Lexington Park does not currently connect to the newest extension at Pegg Road.
