From The Morning Journal: Maine School Administrative District No. 9 is proposing a $63 million renovation and expansion of the Mount Blue High School/Foster Technology Center campus in Farmington. The 900-student school will integrate technical and traditional programs that have common themes, and eliminate the long-held distinctions between vocational and academic programs. The plans call for modernizing, enhancing and enlarging the 40-year-old high school from 186,400 to 226,000 square feet, with new learning spaces dedicated to the tech center. The architect is PDT Architects.
