Things are moving quickly as we approach summer in about 1 1/2 months.  Teachers whose rooms will be renovated this summer received boxes and are packing their things.  Those who are familiar with educators realize that it's hard for us to throw things out.  We always think we'll find a use for something later on, and we are the ultimate packrats.  Now, with limited space for storage, teachers are making hard decisions on what to keep and what to throw out.  Once the renovated classrooms are completed, we hope there will be more flexibility for room arrangements.  21st century education is about providing flexibility for teaching and learning through collaboration and project-based learning.

Very shortly, workers will be preparing classrooms for the Cisco wireless system which will be installed throughout our school with the hub located in the MDF room in the new administration building.

This is the back view of the 10-classroom building.  They are building up the first floor which will be 13'4" tall.  There will be some concrete panels (where the wood is) as well. 

The crane is dropping the chill box into the building which is located in the back of the administration building.  This is the area which will be controlling the air conditioning for the buildings.

This is the chill room which came up in the last week or so.
