Project Close Out 6.1.22

 Project Close Out

The Grand Opening of the new Toledo High School was held on April 22nd in the gym of the new school. The event was attended by members of the Cowlitz Indian Tribe who drummed and sang. Suzanne Donaldson from the Tribe presented a button blanket that is displayed in the Spirit Hall. Representatives of IBI Group Architects spoke about the design and process of building. The ribbon was cut by members of the board of directors and then the school was available to the public for touring.

Jones and Roberts are completing the last of the details of the project including landscaping on the south side of the building. They are expected to be fully complete and billed out by mid-July.

The district thanks  Ross Parker Lead Architect, IBI Group, Forrest Roberts and  Doug Jones of Jones and Roberts Construction, Doug Nichols, Project Manager, Mike Ross, Maintenance Director TSD, Martin Huffman, Principal THS and the staff and students of THS for their contributions to the completion of this project. Most importantly, we thank the taxpayers of Toledo School District for their willingness to support the building of this modern replacement for the old high school facility.
