New buildings for district
In the November 2007 election, residents of North College Hill School District voted in favor of a bond issue to allow the district to build three new school buildings — elementary, middle school and high school — scheduled for completion during the 2010-11 school year.[5]
Becker, Clovernook and Goodman Elementary Schools closed at the end of the 2009-2010 school year. In their place, North College Hill Elementary School houses all district students in preschool through grade four.[6] The former Goodman Elementary School building is now the District Office, as well as home to the Passages art gallery and the North College Hill Historical Society.
