Construction continues to move forward, with significant progress since our last update
Work on the new athletic field is progressing well, with grading now approximately 80% complete. The next phase of work includes installation of the underground drainage system, which is an important step in preparing the fields for future use. The bus garage site has been brought to its final grade, creating a solid foundation for upcoming utility work. Installation of sanitary sewer and water utilities is scheduled to begin next. Renovation work inside the Middle/High School began on June 8 and continues to progress steadily with floor removal nearly complete, ceiling installation almost 90% complete, and underground plumbing work underway. Installation of HVAC and fire protection systems above the ceiling has begun, along with metal stud framing and drywall that are starting to define the renovated learning spaces.

Ground has officially been broken and MS/HS will be closed for summer construction beginning June 8th
Spring Valley School District recently celebrated an exciting milestone with an official groundbreaking ceremony for the community-approved projects getting underway this Spring/Summer. Staff, students, and board members were able to turn the first shovel of dirt to mark the start of construction. As we approach the end of the school year, our Middle/High School staff members are also packing up to move all summer activities — Community Ed Classes, Weight Room and Summer School — to the Elementary school during the construction planned for this summer. The Middle/High School will be closed for construction beginning June 8, 2026.
We’re also excited to share a first look at the new Bus Barn rendering (below) as construction on this project also gets underway later this summer.

Construction gets underway on our school improvements!
Design and bid work are complete, so during spring break crews were able to remove corridor flooring at the Middle/High School building and begin installing new fire-protection piping while our District Maintenance Team has also been busy painting the middle/high school hallways. Site preparations are also moving forward on the new athletic field, and interior renovation work is scheduled for this summer.
Last but not least, the Bus Barn general contract was awarded to Meyer Buildings, with construction to scheduled to begin once the earthwork is complete in mid to late summer.
