ETB and MBAJ Architects are heading up construction across the county. There are five projects including two new schools and remodeling to three existing schools.

These projects are being funded by the $37,000,000 school bond that was voted for in November 2008 and $10,600,000 from the state School Building Authority.

"We are very thankful to the community for voting for the school bond," says John Curry, Greenbrier County Schools Superintendent.

Exterior construction is underway at Smoot Elementary School. Eastern Greenbrier Middle School will be getting a new gymnasium. Major renovations are planned for Greenbrier East High School and new elementary schools will be built in Lewisburg and Rainelle.

"Our facilities are going to be very, very much in line with 21st century skills that our students need to have to be successful," says Curry.
