Exterior Walls



The contractors now have a roof to work under and this has allowed them to make some good progress even with the rain. The first picture shows the exterior walls on the agri building and classroom sections. The second picture shows the slab for the principal's office and other office areas.

Good Weather Helps



Modern Builders Construction has made good progress installing the red iron and the roof metal. They are half finished with the red iron on the math/science section and are about half finished with the roof metal on the agri building. Also, the electricians are installing the light poles in the parking lot. The are 40 feet tall and will have to be lifted with a crane. The pictures show the roof metal from the sky crane with the classroom sections in the background. Also, notice the poured footing and walls for the gym in the distant bacground.
