JUNE 22, 2011

Head of Upper School Rich Schellhas and Head of Middle School Ken Rogers led tours for more than 200 students, faculty and parents of the Alter Middle School and McNeil Upper School buildings before school ended a few weeks ago. The excitement about the new facilities was contagious, and the tour groups doubled after the first day! 

The construction projects continue to be on schedule. The stone is being installed on the exterior and the glass curtain wall is being completed. Lockers, casework, cabinets, millwork, flooring and ceilings continue to be installed. Smartboards have been delivered and installation has begun in the Middle School classrooms. Doors have been delivered and installation has begun. Work continues on the parking lot and new slip road. The faculty are scheduled to "move in" on August 22!

GA had a wonderful day of weather at the new Carey Stadium for Lower School Field Day on May 27! Many of the asphalt paths have been paved and the landscaping has been completed. The new well irrigation has been fired up and is watering the fields. The only work remaining is the final coat on the new parking lots. Natural grasses are also beginning to grow around the cells near the Class of 1888 Bridge in The Preserve.  Come on over and see it for yourself!
