The St. Johns County School Board accepted a $59.4 million bid to build a new K-8 school in the northern part of the county.
decided to reject three bids to build the school because they came in too highConstruction on the new school is now moving forward again after the district accepted the lowest bid from St. Augustine-based STG Contracting Group to build a new K-8 in the Shearwater neighborhood between County Road 210 and County Road 16. Two years ago, the district built the exact same model school for $37.2 million.
The new school is needed to alleviate overcrowding in the fast-growing northern part of the county near the Duval County line.But the district may have been able to build the same school for $3 million less if it had accepted a bid from the same company in April, but the district said it didn’t have faith it would finish construction on time. The district originally wanted to open the school in the fall of 2023.
