Because projected costs came in under budget, it has been decided to do more renovation to the high school than originally planned. Work will be done on some of the ceilings and heat ventilation and air conditioning in some of the classrooms. So that's a neat deal for us. The funding is separate from the bond issue and will come from the district's regular building fund. The Harney project is one of several that will prepare the elementary schools for growth and make room for all-day kindergarten.
Construction is ahead of schedule.
The walls are up, the windows framed and the roof is on. Those four classrooms we need for the fall. Next summer, four new classrooms will be added to Dakota City Elementary. It will be in all six elementary schools by 2002-2003, Rector said. In the summer of 2002, E.N. Swet and Lewis and Clark Elementary schools will see construction of new multi-purpose rooms.
