D21 Long-Range Panel Leans Toward West-Side Elementary

The Long Range Facilities Planning Committee for North Wasco County School District 21 began to move toward a recommendation on how the district should proceed on replacing aging buildings, and there is a lean toward starting with a new elementary school on the west side of The Dalles.  That was the result of breakout group discussions at their meeting this week, and D-21 Chief Financial Officer Randy Anderson noted using a new Chenowith area primary school as a starting point could make it easier to put together a new high school facility.  The committee will meet again on March 14 as it moves closer to creating an overall recommendation for the D-21 board.  The group is recommending the district wait until November to put a bond measure before voters, after the board had originally had a goal of putting such a request on the May ballot.
