New Elementary, High Schools Planned For Prince George's

Prince George's County officials plan to build a new elementary school in Hyattsville and replace three high schools in the county with more modern facilities.

In addition to the new school in Hyattsville, where officials are projecting booming population growth in the coming years, a funding request made to Maryland school construction officials also would help pay for a new Fairmont Heights High School and Oxon Hill High School, as well as a new Henry G. Ferguson Elementary School in Accokeek.

The construction projects are four of the county's top priorities in a request for $57.4 million in capital funding for fiscal 2013.

Crazy. I live near Oxon Hill High, and drive by it on a daily basis. It's in very good shape, probably 30-35 years old. Another case of municipal waste. Buildings don't teach students.
