New May Street Elementary School Opens

The Hood River County School District’s first new school building in nearly 50 years is hosting its first classes today.  Students were settling in to their routines in the new May Street Elementary School.  Principal Kelly Beard says everyone is thrilled with the new building, which he noted is not quite finished yet.  The outside envelope is not quite done, demolition of the old school continues, and construction of the parking lot and a play field is still to come.  A community grand opening for the new May Street School is planned for October 3 from 3:30 p.m. to 5 p.m.  Demolition of the old May Street building should be finished in a couple of weeks.
