A giant steel "hand" grabbed the roof of the gym of Troutdale Elementary School Thursday, gave it a powerful tug, and the wall started tumbling down. The next big swipe revealed the black curtains of the gym stage dangling in the breeze, another big pull and the curtains came down into the pile of rubble.

The Troutdale Elementary gym is being demolished to make way for the new Troutdale Elementary School being built next to the old school. Students will go to class in the old school building during the upcoming 2017-18 school year — minus the gym — as the new school is being built. Students will start at the new school in fall 2018 and the remainder of the old building will be demolished.

The price tag for the new school, which will accommodate 425 students, is about $32 million.

Eight new or largely remodeled schools on their way in Reynolds and Gresham-Barlow School districts.

A construction worker jabs a 90-pound jackhammer into the concrete floor in what used to be the health room of Reynolds High School. A gaggle of workers grab up the slabs of concrete weighing hundreds of pounds and sling them onto a hand truck for removal.

This labor is a tiny part of the $416.2 million school building boom fueled by bonds voters approved for the Reynolds and Gresham-Barlow School Districts. More than 8,000 kids attend the eight local schools that will be completely replaced or substantially remodeled, and two dozen more will be improved. Voters gave a thumbs up to a $125 million bond for Reynolds School District in May 2015 and a $291.2 million bond for the Gresham-Barlow School District in November 2016.

Join us this summer for BTown Kids 12:00 pm to 2:00 pm every Saturday!  BTown Kids will provide a BBQ lunch, games, music, face painting, prizes, snow cones, and a ton of fun!  Located at the Davis Elementary School track/field area.
