Folks appear resigned to building Nancy Reynolds school on old spot

It would look like old one but be updated, bigger; renovation was unfeasible

DANBURY (By Lisa O'Donnell, Winston-Salem Journal) - Nancy Reynolds Elementary School has played an important role in Jan Cox's life.

Four generations of her family have attended or are attending the historical school.

Cox carried with her a sliver of sadness yesterday when she stepped forward at the Stokes County Board of Commissioners meeting yesterday and backed a plan to demolish the school and build a new one in its footprint.

"We regret that as a community, we did not pursue renovation when the school could be renovated," Cox said after the meeting.
