Twin Rivers school district celebrates new school buildings<\/p>\n

\"Teo<\/a><\/p>\n

The campus at Garden Valley Elementary was buzzing on Thursday morning. Not for back to school but for the opening of a new cafeteria, auditorium and administration building. <\/p>\n

“I think when you have something like this it really leaves a lasting impact on students,” said school board member Emmanuel Amanfor.<\/p>\n

For the past few years, the 11,000-square-foot building has been under construction at a cost of $17.8 million. Half of the money was paid for through a bond and the other half from facilities funding. <\/p>\n

Enrollment is growing, and Amanfor says the school was running out of space. <\/p>\n

“This is very necessary. The facility they had before where they were able to interact and do a lot of activities were literally two trailers put together,” Amanfor said. “But now they have the space, a cafeteria where they can get good food and a stage where they can put on presentations. It will be a quality experience for them.” <\/p>\n

Not to be left out, the staff is thrilled as well. Part of the project also includes a 2,000-square-foot administration office which is set up as a more welcoming place to work with students and parents.<\/p>\n
