The Richmond School Board voted Monday to create its own request for design proposals for the new George Wythe High School, rejecting the city’s pre-existing RFP submitted by Mayor Levar Stoney in June.
The board voted 5-4 in favor of a proposal by Board Member Jonathan Young to request designs for a new GWHS that can accommodate 1,600 students, giving Superintendent Jason Kamras an Aug. 31 deadline to issue the request. They’re also calling on the administration to start work on redesigning both the Career and Technical High School and Woodville Elementary School by Oct. 31.
