There were rumors of one being considered in southern part of Laurel Co. in the last couple years. Don't know if anything ever become of it.

It'll never happen for fear of multiple things.
Another laurel county high school is badly needed in North Corbin but if they do ever build another they will put it somewhere else in laurel county. My guess would be out on 80 heading to Somerset as a West laurel high school or between wyan pine and keavy.

Corbin will eventually win the battle to annex into laurel county they're just waiting on the right money and politician to change the laws. When that happens there will be an arms race between London and Corbin to see who can annex land faster. 50 years from now you will cross from London city limits straight into Corbin city limits on 25 and i75.

I've never understood why the city of London didn't push for a London independent school in the past 30 years. It would really cut into the county school system.
In the end North would probably still be a 5A school since they have 6A numbers now. South would probably drop to 4A or even 3A and London would be somewhere around a 2A similar to Somerset if I was guessing.
Isn't both laurel county schools in city limits? Does the city reap any benefits from that?

As of right now, a kid that lives behind the KFC in Corbin just outside of city limits and across the laurel county line they have to go to school all the way at South in London.
Those kids aree litterally 5 minutes and about 4 miles from Corbin high school.
On a good day with the ridiculous why 25 traffic between Corbin and London, those kids have to drive all the way to London where South laurel sets about 15 miles down the road which can trake you 30 minutes or longer some days

My guess is by 2050, Corbin will be a 5A school. Whitley still a 5A school. Lynn Camp almost non existent with the annexation of Corbin and a new laurel county school only a few miles down the road.
