Shorecrest construction update and aerial view

which runs in front of the school.

enough shape to be retained.

Here is the latest aerial of the Shorecrest site.

In the aerial you can see the new gymnasium in the center right. The roofing is complete and work has begun on masonry walls inside and completion is expected for the 2012-13 school year in September. 

Meanwhile at the upper left of the aerial, work continues on the performing and visual arts building that will surround the existing theater. Concrete slabs have been poured for the classrooms in that area and you will see walls rising in this area in the coming weeks. This building is scheduled for completion late in 2012. 

This summer the current gymnasium, J Hall and S Hall will be demolished so that work may begin on the three-story academic building.

More information is available on the high school modernization page, including a presentations made recently to the School Board updating the progress of the projects, and the phasing plans

As Shoreline does not have a school big enough to serve as a transition campus, students will continue to attend Shorecrest and Shorewood during the construction phases. The architects created plans to work around existing classrooms, then move students to new buildings and demolish the old.

  1. I went to play tennis the other day and it appears they've turned the tennis courts into parking. Will these courts continue to be tennis courts after the construction? They will be sorely missed if not!
