Construction contract awarded for Evergreen School replacement
Construction is expected to start on a new Evergreen Elementary replacement school in Drayton Valley in the coming weeks.
That according to Wild Rose School Division superintendent Brad Volkman who says Alberta Infrastructure has awarded the project contract to Chandos Construction.
“We’re really excited about it,” says Volkman. “Things are on schedule and it shows that we’re progressing towards our goal of having a new replacement school. We’re excited to work with Chandos as they convert our design into a magnificent new school.”
Volkman says the need for a replacement Evergreen school became apparent in November of 2016 when a water issue was noted in the school’s crawl space.
