Progress on the USD 234 bond projects

Science classrooms, labs and office space inside the new wing only lack furniture before they are usable sometime in February, USD 234 Superintendent Bob Beckham said.

Renovations to the current auditorium include new HVAC, ceilings, lighting, seats and other improvements. Old seats were removed from the auditorium and a platform was installed in the area so workers could get easier access to the ceiling.

A receptionist area will be located inside the entry, which will lead into the new science and administration wing that is nearing completion. Improvements are part of the USD 234 school bond projects.
