The History

In mid-2007 the basement was converted into an expanded lunchroom, a music room was created, computer "lab", art room and extra storage space (storage courtesy of Eagle Scout of Troop 17) all were made. In 2016 the school built a STEM Lab and new music room as well. In 2015, 2016, and 2017, the school executed their "Read-a-Thon" that was led by the librarian, Michelle Banaszak; students would get to stay for the night at the school. Also in 2005 and 2014, the school won the annual blue ribbon award. In 2016 the school finished the STEM wing.
