Board approves bid for new Alvaton Elementary
The
Warren County Board of Education has approved D.W. Wilburn
Construction Company’s bid to build a new Alvaton Elementary
School. The Lexington-based company will complete the
80,000-square-foot building for a cost of approximately $11.6
million.
The new Alvaton Elementary, which will be able to accommodate 750 students, will be built on the same campus as the old school, which will be torn down once the new building is finished. It will include a foam wall and roof, which will triple the building’s insulating power.
Construction will begin as soon as possible, and the new school is scheduled to be finished in the summer of 2006.
Alvaton Elementary is the latest example of the school district’s continuing efforts to meet the needs of Warren County's growing student population. This year, renovations to the county's three middle schools were completed. The board of education has purchased 58 acres at the intersection of Rich Pond Road and U.S. 31-W as the site for a new high school or middle school to be built in the next few years.
