St. Johns County School District approved the plans for a new high school Tuesday morning, according to the district.

The new school, which the district is referring to as “New High School III,” will house approximately 2,100 students from grades 9-12.

The high school will be located off Beachwalk Boulevard within the Twin Creeks development, and plans to open for the 2022-2023 school year.

The new high school will include multiple buildings surrounding a courtyard.

The plans also include an administration/media center, auditorium, gymnasium, cafeteria and a classroom building.

The classroom building will be a three-story building with general education classes, ESE classes and science labs inside, along with a collaborative concourse on each floor.

The goal for this space will be to provide project-based learning, small group instruction and flexible groupings, according to the district.

The timeline for construction to begin and the anticipated opening date have not been released.
