Education is huge with the Secretary of the Army ( Dr. Mark T. Esper ).

Perry Wiggins, Executive Director of the Governor’s Military Council, provided that information to a Military Affairs Council audience in Junction City on Thursday.

“When he goes to installations he visits, one of the things he likes to do is he likes to talk about schools. The fact that you’re improving your high school, the fact that you’re looking at your other schools, how you can continually improve the education of those students that are a part of military families is absolutely one of the most important things you can do….quality of life.”

A new high school is planned for construction on the west side of Junction City. The planning is under way at this point.
