North Stafford, Va. — As Stafford County eyes relocating Anne E. Moncure Elementary School from its site along Va. 610 in busy North Stafford, the Stafford County Board of Supervisors could benefit from the deal.

According to Fredericksburg.com, the Board is prepared to pay $1.69 million for a nearby site to relocate the school to and then hand over the site to the county school system – in exchange for the land the school currently sits on which is worth a considerably high amount of cash.
