Project Summary

The proposed addition to Thirkill Elementary includes the construction of new classrooms and a gymnasium, designed for both student and community use. This expansion would allow for 5th graders to return to Thirkill Elementary from Tigert Middle School. The project also features enhanced parking with designated areas for parent and bus drop-off and pick-up. If the bond passes, construction for the elementary school addition is set to begin in 2025.
