Construction of new school progresses as new school year nears

Madison City Schools shared some photos on Tuesday showing progress as construction of Midtown Elementary continues toward completion for the 2021 school start in August.

The $34 million school is located along Wall Triana next to Kroger. A second school, Journey Middle School, will be located behind the district’s central office on Celtic Drive. It will be completed in time for the 2022-23 school year.

Madison residents overwhelmingly approved a 12-mill property tax increase in September 2019 to fund the construction of the schools, plus additions at Bob Jones and James Clemens.

Below are photos of the progress at Midtown:
