August 13, 2009

Sublette County School District #1 held a "First Column Setting Ceremony" on Thursday evening, August 13th, at the construction site for the new Pinedale Elementary School. The school is being built in the new BloomField subdivision west of Pinedale. It is expected to be completed at the end of summer 2010 in order to open for school in the fall.

The column setting ceremony was hosted by the design/build team of Layton-Sandstrom, Wyoming School Facilities Commission, Northstar Project Management, and Sublette County School District #1. This school is the first Wyoming School Facilities Commission design/build project.
