The state School Building Authority has granted the BOE about $1 million in stimulus money to renovate Junior Elementary School.

Junior Elementary students will go to school at the high school while the renovations happen.

The SBA has also granted about $525,000 to offset the cost of the new roof on the Career Technical Center and the old portion of the high school.

The board will pay about $175,000 toward the project.

"It means instead of putting all of that money aside to be able to spend on the roof, I only have to set a certain portion aside to spend on the roof and then I can spend the rest on teachers and instructional materials that go directly to our students," says Superintendent DeEdra Lundeen.

The board bought new heating units several years ago.

Workers are now installing them on the new roof.
