Spartanburg County voters approve new Woodruff High School
An Upstate school district is getting a new high school.
Voters in Spartanburg School District 4 approved a bond referendum last week to build the new school.
The district released renderings of what the new high school will look like.
About 5,000 new homes are planned for development in the area over the next year, officials said.
The projected construction cost to build the new school is about $100 million.
The school will sit on 108 acres about a mile from the current high school.
The new school is scheduled to open in fall 2025.
Dr. Rallie Liston released this statement:
"On behalf of the Spartanburg District 4 School Board and Administration, we want to thank our community for acknowledging the need for a new school to accommodate growth in our district. We will continue to communicate with our community as the project moves forward. It is an exciting time, as we work to provide a sense of pride, loyalty, and tradition to our students creating new spaces for student learning. Go Wolverines!"
