A facility update to the Maroa-Forsyth school district is going as scheduled.

Dr. Kris Kahler, the Superintendent of Maroa-Forsyth schools, indicates they are moving on schedule for their target date of February for the opening of their new middle school. Dr. Kahler reminds they are adding on to the high school.

Part of the driving force behind the new middle school is the district's decision to go one-to-one with technology. Dr. Kahler notes the current middle school makes it difficult to have consistent internet access throughout the building.

The interior of the building is already moving toward the finishing touches. Dr. Kahler says the kitchen and auditorium are still awaiting the installation of equipment but other sections are nearing completion.

Dr. Kahler is anticipating student and faculty reception of the new building. He feels they will be excited about moving into a twenty-first-century learning experience.
