Charleston County School District has completed work for the replacement of the existing Chicora Elementary School. Coordinating with the City of North Charleston resulted in a new location for the school adjacent to the existing Military Magnet High School. The construction of the new building consisted of an approximate 74,000-square-foot elementary school that accommodated 500 students. The new state-of-the-art facility contains typical Classroom spaces for Grades Pre-K through 5th Grade, a Media Center, Cafeteria, Multipurpose, Computer Labs, and other support spaces for the Chicora Elementary staff and students. The design for the facility included features to showcase the school’s Communications Curriculum.
