Virginia high school destroyed by earthquake to be rebuilt (with video)

Sept. 2, 2014
The $54-million project will be supported partially by the Federal Emergency Management Agency and will include an expanded career and technical education center.

Construction of a High School in Louisa County, Va., that was destroyed by a 2011 earthquake is on track to be completed on time and within budget.

The $54-million project will be supported partially by the Federal Emergency Management Agency and will include an expanded career and technical education center.

Virginia Senator Tim Kaine, who cofounded the Senate's Career and Technical Education Caucus, recently visited the school to observe how the school was using the federal funds.

The new Louisa County High School is scheduled to open next August in time for the start of the 2015 school year.
