On Tuesday, the Monroe City School Board voted on plans to move a Monroe school.

The MCSB voted to move Martin Luther King Jr. High and find a new location closer to Wossman High School.

The MCSB will build the new school next door on Parkview Drive.

The first choice was land on Oregon Trail, but the City owned property is already committed to recreational use by the city.
