PRINCE WILLIAM COUNTY -- The 13th high school to be built in Prince William County in an effort to ease overcrowding is predicted to be a success -- sort of.
The new high school, to be built on Progress Court near Jiffy Lube Live, is scheduled to open in 2021. Accommodating more than 2,500 students and a price tag of $133.4 million, it is expected to ease the crowded conditions at Battlefield, Patriot and Stonewall high schools.
Unfortunately, as the county population grows, each of these schools is predicted to be over maximum again in two to three years.
