Kenmore is finally getting its long-promised school reboot. Akron Public Schools is set to break ground next Thursday at 11 a.m. on a $76 million Pre-K through eighth-grade campus that will combine Pfeiffer Elementary and the Miller South School for the Visual and Performing Arts on the site of the former Kenmore High School. The new building is designed to house both schools under one roof and will turn most of the old high school footprint into green space, parking and two playgrounds. District leaders are selling the project as a long-awaited investment in a neighborhood that has watched school buildings close and sit empty.
