High School Construction Update
Over the past year, architects have met with design teams to form the design work for the additions and renovations at the secondary schools that were approved by voters last fall. Drafts of design concepts are available to view online.
The first projects slated to “break ground” are East Ridge High School and Oltman and Woodbury middle schools. Construction at East Ridge High School will begin in March. Construction at Oltman and Woodbury middle schools is scheduled to begin construction in May of this year. The start and end of the construction schedule will be determined by frost.
To view a more detailed schedule of projects visit the proposed construction schedule. Please note that this is a proposed schedule and design and construction schedules are subject to change.
