There are discussions of this. There is even a planning committee that has been discussing this very topic for the last 3 years. Believe me, it's the sad but true tale of the future of Floyd County Schools. There are some missing pieces that have to fall in place though: A road conecting Minnie to Harold from the Minnie Ballpark, which has money appropriated to it by the state legislature and I believe is in the process of happening. Also, look for Prestonsburg to become a city school as it was before, because the town will not want to lose it's school and send them to Minnie plan and simple. The citizens of Prestonsburg would want to opt out - that's my opinion purely. The new school can be built at Minnie or on the new 680 and be centrally located.

I personally think it's a huge mistake to consolidate the schools. Leave it the way it is, keep Prestonsburg in the public system becaues the rest of the county needs their numbers for financial help.

I can remember when South Floyd was built and someone saying it was an over-grown middle school and that the High School wouldn't be there more than 20 years.
