Topping Out The New Ernest Ward Middle School (With Photo Gallery)
August 10, 2014
A “topping out’ ceremony was held Friday afternoon at Ernest Ward Middle School to celebrate the building reaching its highest point.
Click here for a photo tour inside the $20 million facility. If construction continues on its current pace, students will be moved into the new building when they return from Christmas break in January 2015.
A pine tree placed Friday on the building’s highest point marked the symbolic “topping out” of the project, following a construction tradition.

Interesting to see all of the different skilled jobs that go into such a project.
Amazing to see what 1/2 cent sales tax can produce for a Community.
Thanks to all who have done any of the work to build this school for our kids and grandkids.
Exciting to think that in a relatively short time the halls and grounds will be filled with students, teachers, support persons, administrators and parents who are devoted to the kids having a better life.
