Demolition Set For Former Poca Middle School

PUTNAM COUNTY, W.Va. -- The old Poca Middle School will be demolished this week.

Demolition crews will be on site today to tear down the old building. The demolition is expected to get underway mid-morning.

In 2009, voters approved a $56 million school bond to build a new Poca Middle School along with several other schools and additions.

The new Poca Middle School opened in 2012.

Poca Elementary, which is located next door, was also completely renovated.
