When completed all students in the corporation will have a location to gather in the event of a natural disaster. In these events these rooms have been designed to keep our students safe. During the school day these rooms will be used to help develop our students' love for learning. The safe room at the high School will focus on the performing arts and the safe room at the middle school will focus on STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math).

Thank you to Kovert Hawkins Architects and River Hills for the help in the planning and implementation of these projects. Thank you to Kovert Hawkins Architects and River Hills for the help in the planning and implementation of these projects.
