The oldest portions of our schools in Calamus and Wheatland date back to 1950, which means our students and staff face challenges every day due to the age and condition of these facilities.
The last major work performed at the high school was nearly 20 years ago. The challenges that exist at the campus include:
➡️ No secure entry
➡️ An outdated Ag building that is not connected to the school
➡️ Poor circulation throughout the building
➡️ Small classrooms
➡️ Deteriorating floors
➡️ Windows that leak and lack screens
➡️ Crowded stairwells and hallways
➡️ Lack of resource space
On Tuesday, voters in the Calamus-Wheatland Community School District will consider a $7.5 million bond referendum that would allow us to move forward with improvement projects at our schools in both communities.
