Sheesh! I’d hate to live in Roanoke right now with 2-3 elementary and a high schoolto be built. Taxes are going to explode through the roof.

Looks like the recommendation is to build a 3rd high school.

Proposed new high school would serve around 1,400 students and help overcrowding

School board considers building new high school. It would serve more than 1,400 students, costing around $150 million.
