In order to gather feedback regarding Appalachian State University’s recently acquired 74-acre property on the site of the former Watauga High School — located at 400 High School Drive, just off Highway 105 South in Boone — a listening session will be held.

Please plan to attend and give feedback to university leadership to help inform decisions regarding future development opportunities for this property. The session will be interactive; all in attendance are encouraged to participate in the discussion. Additionally, note takers will be present on-site during the session.

Proposed options for development of the new acquisition have included student residence halls, a day care facility and student recreation fields. The property’s current parking configuration accommodates 500 spaces, which could offer a short-term alleviation for limited parking available on the university’s main campus.

Appalachian welcomes feedback from all members of the community.
