Summary

Superintendent said construction of the new Hampton County High School is on schedule to open this fall; the moving committee proposed July 9 at 9 a.m. as the tentative ribbon-cutting date pending final confirmations from the state superintendent's office.

Superintendent Dr. Sheffield told trustees the new Hampton County High School construction is progressing and remains on schedule for a fall opening. She said bi-weekly construction minutes (March 25 and April 8) show steady progress, that equipment and seats are arriving, and that the moving committee will present a move calendar at the May 5 meeting.

"We're going to have the most beautiful facility here in Hampton County," Dr. Sheffield said, describing site visits and continuing installation work. The moving committee proposed three dates for a ribbon-cutting; staff coordinated with the State Superintendent's office and suggested July 9 at 9 a.m. as the tentative date and time. Trustees agreed to proceed with planning for July 9 and instructed staff to finalize logistics and notify the state office.

The superintendent also reminded trustees of a scheduled Saturday work session to review contractual matters related to phase two of construction; staff will circulate attachments in advance.
