Byrneville Elementary Building Committee To Hold Thursday Meeting
May 24, 2017
An organizational building committee meeting will be held Thursday afternoon at 1:30 at Byrneville Elementary School.
The charter school is considering the construction of a new multi-million dollar modern building containing some number of classrooms, likely a cafetorium and possibly even a small gym.
The committee will meet with teachers, staff and parents to learn about what they feel is needed in a new facility. After that meeting, the school’s board of directors hopes to determine a preliminary cost for a new facility.
