The exterior structure and roof are complete of the new Murray High School wing, which is being added for the grade-level reconfiguration in August 2027. That change will move ninth-grade students to the high school and sixth graders to the junior high schools. “Work on the interior structure is ongoing, including the installation of ductwork, framing, plumbing and fire protection piping,” said Murray School District Superintendent Jennifer Covington. “Much of the mechanical equipment has been delivered to the site.” The addition, which will accommodate 500 more students, includes 21 classrooms, a teen resource center, administration space, security upgrades and a new main entrance with a secure vestibule. The project, which began June 4, 2025, is funded by $35 million from a $125-million bond passed by voters, with the bulk of the money being used to rebuild Riverview Junior High.
