We held a ribbon-cutting ceremony with the Southern Boone Chamber of Commerce this evening for the completed expansion and renovation construction project at Southern Boone Middle School. The school district also hosted a community open house for the public to tour the middle school.
This project was made possible by voters in the Southern Boone School District who approved the $7.7 million bond issue in April 2021 for the middle school construction project. The project connected the two existing buildings with the new addition, which consists of a new main office, science labs, library and vocational area. The project also included converting the current office and library into additional classrooms, and other much-needed improvements throughout the entire middle school.
