Construction continues on Lexington’s sixth public high school.

The $75.8 million, 275,000 square-foot high school is being built on a 49-acre site at 1970 Winchester Rd., near Patchen Wilkes Dr.

The high school would be Fayette County's first new high school since Paul Laurence Dunbar opened in 1990.
