Update on the "New Genoa Elementary"!
Ground breaking for the "New Genoa Elementary" was held on September 16, 2009 at 1:30pm. All K-5 students and staff participated in the ceremony. The K-5 Building will replace the Allen Central and Brunner Building and be ready for the 2011-12 school year. The building will be located at the H.S. site. The elementary building will incorporate a geothermal heating and cooling system and roof line windows to provide "day lighting" for classrooms. It will be designed to meet "green" construction standards certification. The site package bids have been awarded and work will begin on the site shortly.
