Geary USD 475 Board of Education member Dave Walker has been closely involved in the planning and oversight of the new Junction City High School project. He said during a Board of Education meeting this week that he has taken about 60 tours of the facility since the project began.

"It's just amazing the progress and the quality," said Walker. He noted that when people get to see the school "it's going to blow your mind. I tell you what, the auditorium looks like the metropolitan opera, the gyms are just beautiful. The hallways with carpet and tile on the walls, it looks like a college it really does."

Classes for students in the new school are scheduled to begin Aug. 25th.
