The new FHN building comes to a close on outdoor construction. The building is set to finish by the fall of 2024.

The new scoreboard, the track, the main gymnasium and parking system are all the current primary focus for the construction team.

“It’s going really well, the construction is on track,” FHN Head Principal Jeffery Fletcher said. “I feel like we will be in a good place [by summer break].”

Outside, main entrances for easier access are being built. In the building, there will be larger hallways that are going to allow for more walkroom, a designated robotics room and each educational department is going to be near each other.

“I’m just really excited for our students to get a new building,” Assistant Principal Shelly Parks said. “I think it’s going to be nice that we don’t, hopefully, have some of the HVAC issues that we had the first week of school. I just think it’s going to be a place where we can all feel pride.”
