A groundbreaking ceremony on Tuesday kicked off construction for the first of three new elementary schools in Darlington County.
The new Darlington-area Elementary School will combine Cain and Brunson-Dargan elementary schools and will go on the current site of Cain Elementary.
The district’s new superintendent says the new school will be built with student safety in mind.
“It shows commitment from the board for Darlington County School District, commitment to the kids and to the communities about progress, so for a new superintendent walking in the door you couldn’t ask for much better than to be able to build new schools for our kids,” says Dr. Tim Newman, DCSD superintendent.
