Deja Vu

A walk around to the back of the school created a sense of deja vu.  One crew is continuing work on the cafeteria and new office area while another is demolishing the old "intermediate" hallway. 

The exterior walls have been torn down on the village side of the back hallway.  The walls that are common between each classroom are the load bearing walls and won't be torn down.  This allows the classrooms to remain the same size after the renovation. 

The brick facade is being torn down.  This was formerly Mrs. Pleasants' classroom. 

This classroom is on the gazebo side of the property.

The back hoe removes the ceiling tile frames. 

Workers are busy in the classrooms removing hidden ceiling tiles. 

What a mess!

Piles of debris are removed by the small bulldozer.

Outside

The large hole at the end of the old hallway is being filled. 

The back side of the gym is receiving a footer for the new brick that will go up.

The front side of the gym has a new footer that will support the wall for the new classrooms. 

The family resource center is getting its remaining walls. 

Workers continue installing drainage components in the parking lot.

More footers for the new classroom that will be on the first floor. 

Media Center

 Painters have begun work in the media center.

 A fresh coat of paint begins to give the media center a sense of completion. 

 Covers for the support columns lie waiting to be installed.

 The embellishments are looking fresh and clean.

The reading center waits to be completed. 

Administrative Offices

The glass display case has been delivered.

 The interior hallway doors have been installed.



 The first office in the new area has a glass enclosure. 

 This is the view from the area where Mrs. Vogler will greet our guests.

The first room on the right as you enter the office is our new conference room.

A door frame is being installed in the old car hallway. 

Inside

 Drywall studs have been installed in the cafeteria.

 New brick is being laid in the hallway that leads into the cafeteria.  This is the wall that had the Golden Award bulletin board.

 This is the same wall.  You can see the old entrance to the cafeteria on the far right. 

 This was formerly the doorway to the OT room.  The water fountain was under the white box on the left.  This area will be home to our new stairwell. 

 A worker removes the door frame that is by our temporary office.

 This is what remains of the boys' and girls' restrooms by the elevator. 

 The old stairwell will now house our new elevator.

 This is what remains of the workroom.

Notice the colorful paint on the wall.  This area was formerly the staff restrooms.

 Teacher mailboxes and some of the server equipment have been removed.

 This is what is left of the teacher lounge, library, and computer lab. 

The large interior windows in the library have been removed.
