USD 232 in De Soto plans to buy about 150 acres just south of K-10 Highway as a potential site for three new schools, including a high school. The purchase: The USD 232 school board on Monday unanimously agreed to purchase the property at 30400 W. 127th Street, on the northeast corner of West 127th Street and Waverly Road, for about $1.6 million, or roughly $10,900 per acre, from property owner B&C Land and Cattle Company LLC. Potential uses: Cost for this land purchase will come from the roughly $5 million the district set aside for land acquisition as part of the May 2018 bond issue. Superintendent Frank Harwood said the site could be used for an elementary school, a middle school and the district’s third high school in the long term, if and when it is necessary.
