Rebuild and Enlarge Rockwell Elementary
As part of the 2022 Building Excellence Construction Levy, voters approved building a new elementary school on the Redmond Elementary campus. At the April 3 special board meeting, the LWSD Board of Directors approved the repurposing of levy funds to remodel or rebuild and enlarge Rockwell Elementary. This plan creates space for 252 additional students while also addressing an aging facility. Rockwell will include 30 classrooms and support spaces in a new two-story building.
