Immediately following the Cros-Lex Community Schools groundbreaking ceremony on June 2, construction began at all five of the district buildings.  Both the boys and girls bathrooms near the front entrance of Frostick and Meyer Elementary Schools have been completely renovated, including ceiling-to-floor wall tile, new porcelain tile floors, all new automatic plumbing; sinks, toilets, and hand dryers.  Wherever space has been renovated, the rooms have been equipped with energy-efficient lighting and occupation sensors that turn the lights on as you enter the space.

The new middle school secure entrance is nearly complete, including an awning.  Once the school day begins, the only way into the middle school will be through the glass doors and into the main office.  The six middle school bathrooms have been totally renovated matching what was done at the elementary schools.  The 3200 square feet of office space at the middle school has been re-designed and will be occupied by both the middle school and central office staff on August 27.  Near the end of the construction timeline, the house on Peck Road will be moved or demolished.

To see an artist rendering of the additions at Cros-Lex High School, click on READ MORE at the end of this article.  New high school exits have been built on the west and northwest sides of the building.  In order for construction to continue while school is in session, the new exits were built to replace exits closed by the new construction.  The new hallway connecting the east and west ends of the building is complete and construction of the two new science labs is underway on the northwest side of the building.  The remainder of the property has been readied and leveled for the additions of the cafeteria/auditorium, events hallway, and gymnasium.

One of the challenges through the construction has been the 12 foot elevation change from the middle school, to the stadium, to the high school.  To allow for a level area to the east of the new building, a decorative wall was erected, level with the football playing surface, nearly four feet above the area below.

“The construction has gone extremely well this summer,” said Superintendent Dr. Kevin Miller.  “This is a credit to our construction manager at R.C. Hendrick and the contractors hired for the job.  We are right on the timeline set for the work that needs to be completed by the start of the school year.  The large walls for the new cafeteria and gymnasium will be going up soon!"
