Doors to the Murray Innovation Center are expected to open in the 2021-22 academic year, the school said.
Imagine Tomorrow campaign co-chair David Bottoms said the community’s support has been “overwhelmingly encouraging.”
“The fact that the Murray Innovation Center will be built debt-free is a testament to the MPCS community’s generosity and its uncompromising commitment to ensure that MPCS students continue to be equipped with the resources to identify and make the most of their God-given talents,” he said.
