Make sure you continue to travel carefully near Sevastopol School over the next several weeks as the district wraps up its construction. Sevastopol School District is still waiting on flooring to arrive for its 1965 building and the north parking lot is still not finished as of Tuesday morning. As a result, staff members have been shuttled in from a nearby church, and parents and buses have been patient while dropping their kids off at school. District Superintendent Kyle Luedtke even with all the changes, things have been running relatively smoothly.

Right now buses and parents are accessing the school off of Ripp Road, which Luedtke says takes some of the stress off of Highway 57 during the busy drop-off and pick-up periods of the day. He adds the high school students are having to make the biggest adjustments to the new building since they switch classrooms throughout the day. Work on the school’s outdoor athletic facilities is also taking shape. Luedtke says the new grass has been planted on the athletic field and the new press box could be installed later this week.
