Goalposts in sight for campus reconstruction
Phase II of the campus reconstruction project is in its final weeks. Astroturf is being laid on the new athletic field, the maple gym floor and folding bleachers are completed, and the pump/filter test of the new swimming pool is under way. Ivy has been planted for the walls of the pool building, together with shrubbery along the walkway. Electrical and computer network installation is in the works. (Meanwhile, in the North Campus, installation of ceiling-mounted projectors has begun in most classrooms.)
Follow the progress of the reconstruction project with photos and descriptions at the Construction web site.
