Construction starts this year on a projected $33 million high school in Hurricane. Construction of a new building and sports field, along with renovations to some existing parts of the facility, are intended to make room for 1,500 students and improve the schools vocational facilities.

Building will start this fall as crews work to build the new football field and stadium, planning to have the track ready for spring sports. It’s the first step in a project planned for four phases. Next year the plan is to construct the new building on top of where the existing football field is. Then crews would tear down part of the existing building, and eventually build a new vocational building. The Spectrum
