The former campus of W. H. Adamson High School is close to beginning construction to become a Choice School, District 7 School Board Trustee Ben Mackey says.
The future choice school will focus on creative and digital arts, such as graphic design, video editing and music production.
Old Adamson’s rejuvenation is currently in the design phase, which is nearly finished. Mackey says that the historic façade of the building will remain intact and be refurbished.
Mackey did not provide an expected start date for the construction, which will begin once the design phase has been completed. He says construction will last around a year and a half.
The school will aim to open to students for the Fall 2024 semester.
