The Worthington City Board of Education approved an easement allowing American Electric Power to install power infrastructure at Worthington Kilbourne High School to support the district’s construction work.
Board members approved the easement as part of the consent agenda on July 22. Superintendent Dr. Bowers described the easement as necessary “so that we can have power as we go through our construction process.”
