CAMPAIGN UPDATES:
A lot of work has been done and so many things have started to come together culminating in our recent ground-breaking ceremony followed by the start of the utility connections on the site. Elder Corporation has been a great partner and has started the process of connecting our existing school building to the sanitary sewer line at the street. This is a critical step due to the fact that one of the sets of septic tanks that support the existing building are buried where the building pad will go for the new GVCS Activities Center. Once that connection is complete, that old system can be evacuated, and we can start forming the building pad and the pouring of footings to follow soon after.
PDM Precast is our partner for the large precast concrete walls which will form the main shell of the new structure. They have been great to work with, and we are excited to be on their schedule for panels to be produced the first two weeks in June.
The Broadway expansion project has added a few additional hurdles, but well worth it as the improvements they are making with the widening of that street will benefit not only our school, but the entire community. We continue to be blessed with fantastic partners in the project who are all working hard to provide us a finished product that will be foundational to future growth and expansion of Grand View Christian School.
We are extremely thankful for the progress thus far and looking forward to God’s continued blessing and provisions for GVCS. We still have a long way to go, but will certainly see it to completion.
