Harrison Preschool Construction

In the spring of 2022, our Board of Education designated funds to support the Fayette County Preschool Program based on a five-year plan. One priority is to add preschool classrooms at Harrison Elementary. The district's preschool staff recommended that three classrooms be constructed to serve 45 children in a full-day program. If more capacity is needed later, one of these full-day classrooms can be converted into a dual-session (half-day) classroom serving 30 children per session -- thus allowing Harrison to accommodate 60 preschoolers.

The full project also includes a preschool playground, a new playground for grades K-5, HVAC work, and more staff parking off Jefferson Street. Construction, which will happen in phases because of site limitations, runs from April 2024 through December 2025.
