Construction on track at Greencastle Community Schools

Greencastle Community Schools are still undergoing construction and changes, but the end result will be a more conducive atmosphere for the education of studenta in an age of internet and technology, as well as keeping students safe.

 

The construction at the Greencastle High School has been long, but the end goal is well worth the wait. Those driving near the school may notice construction for the basement connector between the McAnally and the high school has started, the hole has been dug.

 

The former main entrance of the school will be student commons area and this part of the project is on track.  The media center is getting a much needed update and spaces in the back of the school will house the future Fab Lab.

 

Over the summer, at the primary schools, secure entrances were installed and updated. This included adding a vestibule, funneling visitors directly to the offices of the schools. While the vestibules are secure, they look unfinished due to supply chain shortages. However, they are expected to have their completed look by fall break.

 

Tzouanakis has had the “envelope” sealed; allowing for a more controlled climate and getting rid of moisture and warm air.

 

Construction at the Greencastle Middle School is expected to start soon. Families should be on the lookout for information being sent home about the updates and changes to procedures during the construction; including updates to student drop-off and pick-up.

 

New this year, and with special thanks to Endeavor Communications; events on the turf field, like football and soccer, will be live streamed as well as the basketball court in the McAnally Center. This is provided at no cost to families and spectators and the link to these live streams is available on the Greencastle Athletics page, https://greencastleathletics.com/.
