SPRING VALLEY — It’s official. The Hall High School Board is going to ask voters in Spring Valley, Ladd, Cherry, Dalzell, Seatonville, Hollowayville and Bureau to approve borrowing $32 million for a new high school.

At Wednesday’s school board meeting, the board unanimously approved moving forward with the project and putting the referendum question on the April 9, 2013, ballot.

The Hall Board hired an architect earlier this year to do an assessment of the building. After weighing a variety of options, in September the board approved building a new school at a cost of $32 million and demolishing all of the current buildings. The alternative would be $18 million in required renovations.
