Shenandoah Elementary School
2008-2009 School Year
WE ARE NOT YET OPEN TO THE PUBLIC.
The construction of our new building with our Administrative Offices, classrooms, Media Center, and Computer Lab is not complete yet. Renovation to the current building also continues. New sound abatement windows and sound insulation are being added to every clasroom. The South Wing of the building where the old Computer Lab, the old Media Center, and the old Administrative Offices were located is being converted into new classrooms and office space. Several classrooms on the first and second floors in the South Wing are receiving a complete overhaul with new wallboard, flooring, lighting, audio and video capabilities, and new computer equipment.
You are going to be amazed when you see the completed building!
