The new Pelion Middle School opened to students and staff this week. The 203,000-square-foot school is designed for 1,200 students with the capacity to serve 1,500 students.

The building project, which broke ground in April 2019, is located at 325 Main Street in Pelion, directly off Highway 178 on a 54-acre site across from Pelion High School. After staff moved into the new school, they welcomed students this week.
