April 13 & 16 hearings on future of school being built at Spriggs/Minnieville

Community members will get the chance to weigh-in on how best to use a new school going up at Spriggs and Minneville Roads to meet the needs of Prince William County Public School students.

Sessions are:

Monday, April 13, 7 p.m. at Hylton High School; and
Thursday, April 16, 7 p.m. at Freedom High School.

Construction of the new building gets underway soon. It will open in August 2016, as either:

A new community elementary school serving students from surrounding areas; or
The new home of Porter Traditional School, allowing that school to expand, while freeing its old building for use as an elementary school to relieve severe overcrowding at other elementary sites along the nearby I-95 corridor.

School planning staff will present detailed enrollment projections for schools potentially affected by the decision.

School Board Members are expected to attend.
