Rebuild and Enlarge Emerson Campus

As part of the 2022 Building Excellence Construction Levy, voters approved funding additional high school capacity on the westside of the district. At the October 2 school board study session, staff shared the new facility will be constructed on the Emerson campus to create space for additional students. The project goals include enhancing opportunity and long-term viability of infant daycare services for enrolled students and families, addressing the aging facility and capitalizing on currently beneficial yet under-enrolled educational programs. Continued work will be needed to reimagine the educational programming for Emerson High School and Emerson K-12. 

Construction phase two: Design & Permitting
