Reedville celebrates revived facility
Summary
The school has a new parking lot, a new modular building with a cafeteria and five extra classrooms, new floors, furniture and lighting, heating, ventilation and air-conditioning units in each classroom, an elevator, a new media center with upgraded technology including projection whiteboards and 80 new Chromebooks, a new playground with a turf square, building safety upgrades and much more. Frantz rode in the new elevator with fellow classmate JoAnne Shuman, in awe of the changes made since they attended the school many years ago. Reedville is the first of many major construction projects planned across the Hillsboro School District to be completed, after voters approved a $408 million bond in 2017. "What its done for kids at Reedville is it has really elevated the learning environment with both the aesthetics in terms of having new flooring, and new cabinetry and air conditioning, (and) its really giving them that message they now have the (same) access to technology." "It was very challenging, we ran into a lot of unforeseen conditions, (its) a building that was built in the 1920s, but working with the district and the teachers here, it was just a whole team effort that got it done," Flint said.
