TRUSSVILLE — The construction of two community elementary schools in Trussville will take 14 to 18 months, Trussville City Schools Superintendent Pattie Neill said at Thursday’s Trussville Area Chamber of Commerce luncheon.
Neill said construction of the school in the Magnolia Place area will take 14 months, while the renovation and construction of the school at the Cahaba Project building will take 14 to 18 months.
“That has been a dream of so many people for so long,” Neill said of the New Deal-era school building housing students again.
Bids to construct the Magnolia Place school were opened Tuesday. The projected bid opening date for the Cahaba Project school is Feb. 5.
