School updates begin this summer at Reynolds Middle School, Sweetbriar Elementary and Salish Ponds Elementary
Reynolds Middle School, Sweetbriar Elementary and Salish Ponds Elementary are getting ready to celebrate construction kick-off. The schools are receiving safety and security upgrades, including more highly controlled entryways. Work will take place this summer and be complete by the time students return to school in the fall. The upgrades are made possible thanks to voter approval of a 2015 bond measure. Other bond projects include replacing Fairview, Troutdale and Wilkes elementary schools and significantly renovating Reynolds High School. All district schools will receive safety and security updates.
“These updates are the first of the major school investments envisioned by the District and our community,” said District Superintendent Linda Florence, “We are excited to celebrate the project kick-off and share plans for the school improvements.”
Construction Kick-Off Event
An ice cream social celebrating the start of construction will be hosted by the District on June 13 at Sweetbriar Elementary. The community is invited to meet the architects and learn more about the safety and security upgrades underway this summer. The event will include student performances. Spanish interpreters will be available. More information about the event is available on the website.
