SBA Grants Mingo County Funds to Renovate Burch High School



The School Build Authority awarded millions of dollars to Mingo County schools to renovate the former Burch High School, which now houses Pre-K through 8th grade.

The county superintendent originally asked for $9M, but the SBA only gave the county $8.5M during a meeting Monday. The superintendent says he will work with the construction crew to hopefully come up with a plan to make up the difference in funding.

This is the fourth time, they have asked for money for the project.


Mingo County will get the money in July.
