KEARNEY, Neb. (AP) — Officials say a $1.75 million gift will let the new Kearney High School add 10,000 square feet of space for career and technical education programs.

The money comes from Scott and Rochelle Morris. Scott Morris is CEO of Morris Press and a graduate of Kearney High. His wife is a former educator for Kearney Public Schools.

Early designs for the addition show three different labs: auto, metals and wood shop.

Superintendent Brian Maher says he Scott D. Morris Institute will be ready for classes when the new senior high opens in fall 2016.
