In May of 2014 the school board authorized the purchase of 300+acres for the new Thompson High School complex.
Planned for a 2000-2200 student capacity the new school is conveniently located within a mile of the existing high school which was built in 1986 for a maximum of 800 students but now serves nearly 1900.
The new complex located between Thompson Road and Kent Dairy Road feels set apart in a field of dreams.
