Project description: Logan-Rogersville's new high school, financed by a $14.9 million bond issue, adds 85,000 square feet among larger classrooms, gym space and common space, said school superintendent Allan Markley. The bond issue, paid for by a tax levy increase, also will fund new sewer lines to the high school and HVAC improvements in all other district schools, Markley said. The school is designed to hold 800 to 1,000 students when it opens in the fall.
