POINT PLEASANT, W.Va. (WSAZ) -- After more than a decade of disagreeing how to fix the county's crumbling school buildings, students, school leaders and the overall community helped dedicate a $25 million school construction project on Monday.
The junior/senior high school, which will accommodate seventh-graders through seniors, is equipped with four science labs, four computer labs, and a "smart board" in every classroom.
"It’s truly an honor, said Marla Nowlin, a Point Pleasant junior. "It’s better than I could dream of ... We’ve always had great teacher. Now, we have a great facility to go with them."
The school is an addition and renovation of the old Point Pleasant High School. Construction started two years ago. Students have been attending the new school since the beginning of the school year.
