A new middle and high school in Warren County aren't scheduled to be open for three more years, but the schools now have a name.

The two schools will be housed in one large building at the intersection of Rich Pond and Nashville Rds.

The Warren County Board of Education voted four-to-zero on Oct. 15 to name the schools Joseph Warren Middle School and Joseph Warren High School.

Warren County is named for Joseph Warren, a revolutionary war hero.

The bidding process for contractors for the new schools is expected to start in a couple of weeks.

The timetable for the schools to open is now 2010.
