Student board members, Mount Prospect Mayor Paul Hoefer and contractors toured the Lincoln Middle School site; contractors said foundations and footings are in place and the project is on schedule for an August 2027 completion assuming continued favorable weather.

Student board members led a community tour of the Lincoln Middle School construction site and highlighted the project funded by a November 2024 referendum. Contractors on site showed students and local leaders early work including storm‑water controls, excavations and foundation footings.

The students said the district will provide monthly construction updates; the next update is scheduled for February.
