The Jefferson County (Ky.) school district is constructing a $27.9 million elementary school.
The school will be connected to the Republic Bank Foundation YMCA and will be the first elementary school built in the west Louisville area in over 20 years, reports WDRB.com News.
Students at Wheatley Elementary School, which recently merged with Roosevelt-Perry Elementary School, will attend the new campus once it opens, and YMCA programming and services will be available for those who attend.
The 79,000-square-foot, two-story school will share a gymnasium, playgrounds, technology center and library with the YMCA.
Luckett & Farley is the architect.
