The new school will be built next to Viera High School in the Viera community, reports Viera Voice.
The middle school will be a one-story complex with three buildings. The 138,000-square-foot facility will be able to accommodate about 1,002 students and will feature a track, grass field areas, four hard courts for tennis and a gym.
Viera High School is designated as a hurricane shelter for the public, and the new middle school could become a supplemental shelter.
