JCPS Superintendent Marty Pollio said at Tuesday's Jefferson County Board of Education meeting that the building would undergo a second inspection after failing an inspection Friday, potentially jeopardizing whether the $17 million school will be ready when classes begin Aug. 10.
Wilkerson Elementary classes have been held inside the former Watson Lane Elementary building since the 2022-23 school year began Aug. 10.
