The district says that Finneytown Elementary will serve K-6 students and is scheduled to open for the 2022-2023 school year.
The new facility will replace Brent Elementary, a K-1 building, and Whitaker Elementary, which houses grades 2 to 5.
Voters approved a $27.9 million bond proposal in 2019 that will cover the local cost of the building the elementary school and a secondary school for grades 7-12.
The Ohio Facilities Construction Commission is contributing about $27 million to the construction projects.
The district is building Finneytown Elementary on the existing Brent Elementary site; the 7-12 building will be erected on the existing secondary campus.
The architects are Emersion Design and Fanning Howey, and the builder is Skanska.
