The Stafford County School Board has announced plans to hold a closed meeting on Tuesday, June 11, 2024, at 5:30 p.m. The primary agenda includes discussing acquiring new property to replace Drew Middle School, located at 501 Cambridge Street in Falmouth.
The decision to hold this closed session comes after recent budget deliberations between the School Board and the Board of County Supervisors. During these discussions, school officials highlighted the urgent need to address the school division's failing infrastructure. A recent incident underscored this need when a hot water pipe burst in the school cafeteria during overnight hours, causing significant disruption and raising concerns about the school's condition.
