Browns Point Elementary Construction Updates

Browns Point students, including Finley O'Connell, Tristan Nicodemus, Carter Scharpp and Jayden Orton,  have a permanent place in their new school. They have signed their names on a beam that'll be visible in the new building's staff lounge. Crews placed that beam March 14 then added an evergreen tree and American flag -  a construction tradition marking the milestone of a structure reaching its full height.

ABOUT THE PROJECT         

Browns Point Elementary School includes kindergarten through fifth grade. The former facility consisted of two buildings, the original 1951 Browns Point Elementary (23,965 square feet) and the original 1960 ​​Meeker Middle School (50,813 square feet). The new Browns Point Elementary School building is adjacent to the site of the old Meeker Middle School building.

The district will keep the original Browns Point Elementary School building (including classrooms, a gym, cafeteria and stage).
