HEMPFIELD SCHOOL DISTRICT TO MOVE FORWARD WITH HIGH SCHOOL RENOVATION

Hempfield School District will move forward with a long-awaited high school renovation.  The Trib reports that bids for the project were approved last night.  Those bids came in about $30 million under budget.  Work is expected to begin June 1 and wrap up by June 2029.A two-story addition on the front of the school, connecting the auditorium to the pool, is a focal point of the renovation. The district plans to use the space as an innovation center — which could include a media center, an innovation lab, collaborative spaces for students and flexible-use classrooms.
