THE to serve as staging site for portables
Heads up that you’ll soon see portables arriving on the Tehaleh Heights campus out front in the gravel parking lot. THE is serving as a staging site for seven portables, four of which will remain at our school for temporary use in the future. Three of them will go to Bonney Lake High School.
Once we receive permits from the county, we’ll have a more definite timeline of portable movement, site preparation and use. Again, these portables are temporary, necessary to provide immediate space for our growing student population.
We’ll keep you posted on the timeline and details for when it comes closer to using the portables as classrooms. Permanent school additions will be planned for the future based on funding source and continuous enrollment.
