February 2023: The North CTE project is being completed quickly by the Contractor. The Dance Studio and Weight Room are scheduled to be completed by Spring Break. Once completed, the weight equipment, currently in the Auxiliary Gym, will be relocated to the new weight room. With the Auxiliary Gym empty, demolition of the gym will begin. A new auxiliary gym will be constructed that will also serve as a storm shelter. The new auxiliary gym construction is expected to take about 12 months to complete.
The second floor of the new CTE center is going through some finish work. Installation of the Unistrut is underway which will provide overhead power and data for the CTE rooms. Door frames are being built and when installed, flooring can be installed. The single user restrooms on the second floor are also under construction.
The first floor CTE construction is focusing on the moveable wall installation and mechanical and electrical installations. The project is on schedule to be available for instruction in Fall 2023.
