The Russell County School Board took the next steps on the band practice area project last night, accepting a bid from Branscum Construction to manage the project.
Branscum Construction was the only company to bid on the project. WJRS News spoke to Russell County Schools Superintendent Michael Ford following the meeting about the cost of the project and what steps will be taken next.
The band has traditionally practiced in the parking lot in front of the middle school. The new proposed area would repurpose the old tennis courts behind the high school into a practice space.
