Alexandria School Board awards facility improvements contract to Innovative Builders
At the regular meeting held April 19, the Alexandria School Board voted to award the contract for facility improvements at Discovery Middle School and the Early Education Center to the lowest bidder, Innovative Builders, a general contractor based in Alexandria.

Since January, the district has been working with JLG Architects through the Schematic Design Phase on both additions while engaging in a community input process involving district advisory councils, community members, coaches, and youth/adult recreation user groups. Bids were very competitive coming in lower than cost estimates. Click on the headline to read the full press release.
