 The school will represent Nicholas County's final step in school system recovery from the June 2016 flood. Perrine said after Glade Creek is done, 47 percent of Nicholas County's students will be in a new school building. Construction is well underway for a new combination school in Richwood. The original plan for Glade Creek included a new high school and a technical education center. But in the end, Nicholas County couldn't afford that, even with millions and millions of dollars in flood recovery money from FEMA. The winning bid was nearly $12 million under budget.
