A major update of the facilities at Cerro Gordo schools continues on as the spring season begins.

Thursday morning on the WHOW Morning Show, Superintendent Brett Robinson told Regional Radio News the construction is just over a year in and they are currently using the connecting addition they planned. Additionally, they have a new STEM lab and dining area.

Robinson indicates the renovation is about more than just updated facilities. Robinson indicates there is a large safety component for their students and staff. Additionally, technology plays a large role in the renovation as well.

The district also added an all-weather track to their outdoor football and track and field facility. Robinson indicates that is going to allow them to host a track sectional and other events at their school.
