Demolishing the Old & Preparing for the New

Demolition continues as the renovation of Quaker Valley Middle School advances. As old pipes and wiring are removed, new pipes and new utility systems are being installed. Walls and stairwells continue to be torn down to make way for the new room configurations and additions to the building.

The district keeps a workflow chart to ensure that each stage and task of the construction is met in a timely manner and to assess whether or not construction is on schedule based on the projected timeline.

“Even though we have had some setbacks such as the asbestos removal, we keep moving the project forward,” Dr. Joseph Marrone, Director of Administrative Services, explained. “Other than some rainy days, the weather has not impeded the progress. The winter weather will be critical as to how we maintain the schedule. We have been pleased to receive many positive comments from the public as they watch the progression of the building.”
