Warren school will be built on West Side

WARREN — After months of talks and protests, the school board made a decision on the location of the next city school building on the west side.

With about 100 community members present, the board voted unanimously tonight to construct one kindergarten through eighth-grade building at the Jefferson School site on Fifth Street Southwest.

The second site is yet to be determined, but it will be in the northwest quadrant of Warren, the board said.

Superintendent Kathryn Hellweg said construction at the Jefferson site will begin immediately.
