Progress continues on the new 5/6 building which is located south of Prairie Point Middle School. Below is a Spring 2023 Construction Update on the new 5/6 building which is scheduled to open in the fall of 2023. On March 3, 2020, voters in the College Community School District approved a $54M bond referendum to construct a new 5/6 building on 80 acres directly south of Prairie Point. Funds generated from the bond referendum in conjunction with SAVE dollars also include significant renovations to our current Prairie Creek building in preparation for our 9th graders and district programs.
