Anticipated activity for the week of July 6-10, 2026:
-
Continue excavations for underground utilities such as storm water, sewer, and water main.
-
Continue geothermal well drilling.
During construction, the preferred route for parking and building access will be via Raider Drive and Door 10. We encourage all visitors to use this entrance throughout the summer.
Please note that while the high school remains open and accessible, access through the construction site is not acceptable. The construction area is outlined in red in the image below, and is fenced off. Please help us to keep all involved safe by staying out of the fenced areas.
More information will be provided regarding building access for next fall as we move forward and will be posted on this webpage.
Thank you for your patience and cooperation as we reimagine Northfield High School.
