25 Years Ago This Week

An estimated 1,500 people gathered to see Sullivan’s new $5.6 million elementary school for the first time. The ceremony was capped by the official presentation of the school by the builders-- Jim Graham of Graham, O’Shea & Hyde Architects and Tim Erickson of Williams Brothers Construction-- to Elementary Principal Rita Florey and six students representing the grade levels at the new school. The school district plans on moving into the new facility March 5, less than a year from the beginning of construction. The $5,650,000 total cost includes furniture, equipment, landscaping, site development, fees and all construction costs. The school contains 24 regular classrooms and seven specialized classrooms.     Login or Subscribe to read the rest of this story.
