Elkin City Schools is preparing to break ground on its new middle and high school gym after receiving $11 million from the Surry County Board of Commissioners, ending a years-long quest to source funding to expand the gym facilities and bring them into compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act.
“We’re just very grateful for the county funding this project,” said Superintendent Myra Cox. “We hope to break ground by the end of July or early August.”
