A day after Griswold School Officials celebrated a new addition, the Red Oak School District hosted a ribbon-cutting for their new school facilities upgrade on Thursday.

The project is a $29 million new school facilities upgrade that started after $19.9 million in obligation bonds was approved by district patrons in 2017. Construction started at the end of the 2017-18 school year and adjustments were made to hold activities around the work last year. Red Oak students will get to use the new facility today.

The complete plan closed the middle school building and converted the Washington Elementary building to house early elementary. The Inman building houses first through sixth grade students. The new high school campus will house 7th through 12th grade students.
