Staff and student workers have been setting up the temporary media center located in the old wrestling gym.

In July, C-Hall was partitioned off for asbestos removal before demolition begins in early August.

The old main office is being renovated for use as classrooms.

This entrance to the old media center will soon lead to temporary classrooms and office space.

A peak at ongoing renovations inside the old media center.

Work crews will have the classrooms ready for students before school starts in September.

The renovations require that ceiling tiles be removed temporarily for ventilation and electrical work.

Walls have been constructed dividing the once open area into several classrooms.
