This year, once hallways that are sealed off due to construction are open, there will be a locker for every student. A number of classrooms in the older wing have been refurbished, including new lighting, new ceilings, blinds, ventilation and furnishings. Work continues inside the building to renovate some old administrative offices to special services areas, including classrooms and resource rooms. Renovation will also be done to turn other administrative offices into classrooms. In the summer, some of the oldest classrooms in the building will be enlarged, creating two classrooms out of three.
Construction continues on the fieldhouse, locker rooms, fine arts areas and new fine arts entrance.
Work is expected to be completed in early 2001. With the new spaces, students are reporting that there is less congestion in the halls. The academic wing is nearing completion and will hold classrooms, modular technology rooms and a photography classroom. The construction company hopes to turn over the area in October after which the District will clean and install furnishings. These classes are now being held in the portable trailers or in their old spaces inside the building.
