District 205 to break ground at Edison in March By Chris Fox

FOR THE ELMHURST INDEPENDENT

At the regular meeting of the Elmhurst Community Unit School District 205 Board held on Jan. 28 at the District 205 Center Superintendent Dr. David Moyer offered an

update on the district’s upcoming facilities projects. Moyer told the board that groundbreaking for the project at Edison Elementary School is expected to take place in late March. The project at Edison includes a

major addition and renovation to add capacity to balance district enrollment, and to house students from Lincoln Elementary School and Field Elementary School. Both Lincoln and Field will be replaced with new school buildings. The

new Lincoln school is expected to be ready for the 2022-23 school year. The new Field school could potentially be open for the 2023-24 school year. In addition to the upcoming project at Edison Elementary School,

the district will soon begin work at Bryan Middle School. Bryan will host students from Lincoln while the new Lincoln school is under construction. More news in School Board Capsules inside this issue.
