EPCUSDConstruction UpdateJune 2023

Summer Construction is in full swing and on target

The final phase of referendum project at John Mills and Elmwood has begun. This summer's construction will complete renovations and additions at both elementary schools. We are very excited to be able to welcome back students this fall to newly renovated learning spaces. At Elmwood the entire second floor is being renovated and at John Mills, the remaining north end of the building is being completed. Please follow the progress of our construction by going to the Construction tab on our district website https://www.epcusd401.org/

This summer the high school is also undergoing an extensive construction project. The old library space in being renovated into a modern media center with additional classrooms and learning spaces for students. In addition, the LGI is being renovated into a classroom and much needed office spaces, which will provide our support services their own space to work with students. The high school renovations are scheduled for completion this August.

Elmwood Elementary

Demolition of the second floor at Elmwood is complete. The construction crews have begun framing out the new classrooms and breakout rooms. Once the walls and wiring is complete, drywall and flooring will be installed. Elmwood is on pace for students to return the end of August.
