Stafford Supervisors fund $1.9 million Ferry Farm renovation, say it will be school’s last

STAFFORD COUNTY -- Ferry Farm Elementary School will receive a renovation to its 53-year-old basement addition under a resolution passed by the Stafford County Board of Supervisors.

All told, the renovation will cost $1.9 million with money coming from leftover money from last fiscal year and diverted funds coming from renovation projects at H.H. Poole Middle School and Mountain View High School.

The approved basement renovation comes after the School Board requested $10.8 million for the renovation of an original wing of the school built in 1955, which the Board of Supervisors approved last summer.
