The West Virginia Board of Education has approved a plan to replace several Nicholas County schools after 2016 floods.
Media outlets report the board Wednesday, May 9, passed the proposal offered by a mediation team.
It would rebuild Richwood Middle and High schools at Cherry River Elementary school in Richwood. It also would consolidate Summersville Middle School, Nicholas County High School and a vocational school in Craigsville into one campus near Summersville.
The state School Building Authority is set to take up the proposal Thursday. The Federal Emergency Management Agency must give final approval to the plan.
