The 40-acre site we donated to the Dublin City School District for an elementary school has increased to 43-acres with an additional 3-acres donation to the District.

The added acreage will allow the elementary school to provide separate lanes for buses and vehicles, creating multi access points for entering and exiting school grounds.

In addition, the added acreage will expand the grounds of the school site so that the beautiful tree line encircling the property will be maintained, consistent throughout the Jerome Village development.

With a construction agreement in place, Dublin City Schools has set a ground breaking for April 12.

According to the Dublin City School District Superintendent, Todd Hoadley, an elementary naming committee has begun meeting and will be making facility name recommendations to the board this spring.

With any typical elementary school development, exterior amenities such as recreational areas and basketball equipment are to be expected.

The school is scheduled to open in the fall of 2020.
