New Elementary Campus
The primary objective of the 2024 bond is to replace Newgulf Elementary with a new modern facility. The initial concepts provide for the construction of a new school on the same site while students remain in Newgulf. Design teams are scheduled to meet with District Staff in late August to begin the Schematic Design process and build on the earlier concepts developed. The goal is to open the new school in the Fall of 2026. Below are concepts from which the design will develop.
Other District Priorities
The primary objective for the bond is replacing Newgulf Elementary with a modern facility. However, as part of the comprehensive assessment of District facilities, Boling High School was also evaluated. While capital improvements were identified for the campus, it was determined that the facility still has some useable life. The District must also work within its debt limits. Accordingly, with the help of staff and community members, the Elementary Campus was prioritized for the first phase. Other recommendations included addressing challenges at Boling High School as funding is available. We will update the community as funding becomes available and options are considered.
