This morning, I posted based on a couple of sources that the location of the New West Knox County High School would be on property located next to Hardin Valley Elementary School. This evening (6/1/05) according to sources at the school board meeting, contracts were provided to the board and media.

The contracts are for property located next to Hardin Valley Elementary School. The school district currently owns some additional property beside Hardin Valley Elementary School. However, it is not enough acreage for a comprehensive high school.

A high school would require approximately 40 acres or more.

Update June 2, 2005 – The Knoxville News Sentinel confirms it here.
