What happened
On September 14, builders said the Innovation Wing was ahead of schedule, with construction completion forecast for January or February 2027. The district targeted student use for the 2027–28 school year, after furnishing, equipment moves and occupancy approval.
Why it matters to families
The new high-school space is intended to expand career and hands-on learning. Finishing construction and opening for students are separate steps. Utility work was also expected to disrupt North Street traffic.
The evidence
The September 14 recording gives the January–February construction forecast and the 2027–28 student-use target. This is later than the district’s July statement that it hoped to open in spring 2027. Neither forecast establishes that the building has opened.
