Construction begins on elementary schools in Cache Valley

(THE HERALD JOURNAL) -- Construction on two new elementary schools in the Cache School District is well under way, and district officials expect the buildings will be ready to open by the start of the 2010-11 school year.

Work on the schools, one in Nibley and one in Smithfield, began in March. Crews at the sites have laid much of the necessary concrete and underground utilities at both sites, said district facilities manager Bruce Parker. Masonry crews have also begun to build the schools’ exterior walls.

Darrell W. Anderson Construction is the general contractor for both projects, which have progressed at about the same rate, Parker said.
