School Construction

Renovation work begins at Saratoga, Redwood

Summer vacation for some may mean lazy days and trips to grandma's house, but for contractors and growing school districts it can mean only one thing--full-scale renovations. The campuses of Saratoga Elementary School and Redwood Middle School have begun to resemble work zones more than school zones as workers move ahead with facilities expansion and construction. Workers in June began initial renovations of the schools, including abatement of structural components known to contain asbestos. Upon completion of the abatement, construction of a new two-story classroom building and a new multipurpose room will begin at the Saratoga Elementary School campus. During that time, a two-story classroom will also be constructed on the Redwood campus. Plans also call for enlarging Redwood's multipurpose/music building and library/media building.   More
