The Board of Education unanimously voted to allow students to remain in the current 1939 building while constructing a new school on the Frederick campus. The first step in the modernization of Frederick High was to perform a feasibility study. The purpose of the feasibility study was to identify school facility renovation/modernization needs and the cost of meeting those needs. The study was completed in December 2012 and in February 2013, the Board of Education approved Option Number 5 to construct a new facility on the existing site that will be located on the existing parking lot to the west of the existing building. Students will remain in the current building while the new building is constructed. Option 5 received approval from the Designees of the Interagency Committee on School Construction in February 2011. On September 6, 2015 ground was officially broken on the new school. Final site work, including the stadium renovation, will begin in spring 2017 and will be followed by abatement/demolition of the old school in summer/fall 2017. The new school is set to be open for students in fall 2017 with total projection completion by summer 2018. The district says the new Frederick High will have a capacity for 1,826 students. The building has been designed to meet at least LEED silver standards for environmentally friendly operations.
