Thanks to the support of the North Canton City School District residents, work has begun on the facility project that will result in two new school buildings in the district. The Mary L. Evans Early Childhood Center, Clearmount Elementary School, and Northwood Elementary will be consolidated into one building. Greentown Intermediate and Orchard Hill Intermediate will be combined into another new school.
A steering committee, which meets every two weeks, has
been created to make recommendations about the construction of each school
building, such as classroom components, lockers, cafeteria size, number of
restrooms, and sizes of extended learning areas.
Timeline for construction:
Late summer/fall 2021: Excavation work
Nov./Dec. 2021/January 2022: Bidding process for building components - foundation/plumbing/HVAC/electricity/etc.
February 2022: Construction begins weather permitting
August 2023: School buildings open
