The existing buildings of Athens Bible School were built over 50 years ago. Dr. Joseph Olson, principal, says ABS needs more than 30 acres for accreditation; the present campus is only about 9 acres.
Site work on the property, which includes roads, parking lots, and two soccer fields, has begun. The first phase will take a year to complete.
The second phase will include a baseball field, softball field, and youth fields.
Phase three consists of the new school building.
