Good afternoon WLWV Community Members,

We have several updates regarding the New Athey Creek Middle School that we would like to share, including some important reminders. 

NOTICE: The new Athey Creek Middle School site is an active construction zone. Only construction personnel are authorized to enter the property. This restriction is for the safety of all.

The New Athey Creek Middle School project continues to make steady progress towards completion in time for students this fall. We are excited to open on the first day of school, Aug. 29.

This picture depicts a typical classroom in the new Athey Creek Middle School. Remaining work includes final ceiling tile, network cable faceplates, tack surface and cleaning. The material on the floor is protection for the carpet. The furniture is assembled and secured in the center of the rooms.
