Carson City's Eagle Valley Middle School hosts 'Topping Out' ceremony to celebrate expansion
Carson City School District celebrated a pinnacle moment in the construction of a 23,000 square-foot classroom expansion at Eagle Valley Middle School on Wednesday afternoon.
Students, teachers, school board trustees and local dignitaries all had the opportunity to sign their names to the final steel beam that was set in place at 12 noon in a ‘Topping Out’ ceremony.
The school campus expansion will add 10 new classrooms, two STEM labs, office and workroom space, restrooms and storage areas and additional room where an existing SMART lab will be relocated.
The project began Monday, June 14 with a planned completion date for July 2022. The anticipated budget was approximately $14 million. The district hired CORE Construction as the contractor.
