Morgan County Schools begins Brewer High renovation to enhance career tech center

In a recent meeting of the Morgan County Board of Education, significant progress was reported on the construction and renovation projects at Brewer High School and the development of a new career tech center. The meeting highlighted the swift mobilization of construction efforts following a pre-construction meeting, with demolition already underway at Brewer High School.

The board expressed gratitude towards the dedicated staff, including directors, maintenance personnel, and custodians, who have been actively involved in preparing the facilities. Their hard work has transformed the classrooms and common areas, making them ready for upcoming educational programs. The goal of these renovations is not only to enhance the learning environment but also to create a versatile community hub that can host various events.

A key feature of the project is the transformation of the gymnasium into a large conference room, which will allow the school to host important events such as state of the schools presentations and career tech banquets. This facility aims to serve as a central location for community gatherings, further strengthening ties between the school and local residents.

The board also announced plans for a parent night on August 5, aimed at welcoming students who will begin attending the new programs this fall. An open house will follow the completion of the renovations, inviting community members to tour the updated facilities.

Overall, the meeting underscored the commitment of Morgan County Schools to enhance educational opportunities and community engagement through these significant infrastructure improvements.
