Construction Update
Below you will find a few pics of the workers' progress the past few weeks. Construction is going well! We are excited to use our new bottle fillers and can't wait to check out all the new tile. Phase 2 will begin shortly after and will include bathrooms in the kindergarten pod, gym, kitchen, and staff bathrooms near our teachers' lounge.
We are so proud of our students and staff! Their flexibility and positive attitude during construction has been impressive. Our 2nd, 3rd, and 4th graders are being rerouted to new areas for bathroom use and our other grade levels are kindly sharing their space.
