    Community forum slated for Tuesday on Stonington school project

    Stonington -- The K-12 School Building Committee will hold a second community meeting on Tuesday to update residents on the progress of design work for the $69 million renovation and expansion of West Vine Street and Deans Mill schools. The hour-long meeting will begin at 5:30 p.m. in the Stonington High School commons.

    Committee members, school officials and the architectural firm of Drummey Rosane Anderson will provide information about updated floor plan designs and site layouts, the timeline for the project and preliminary phasing plans. Residents will also be able to ask questions.

    The committee held an earlier community meeting in March. At that meeting, the committee said the 14-month period to design the project is scheduled to completed in January 2017. The 15-month construction period is projected to commence in April 2017 and be completed in July 2018. The new schools will be open when students return to school the following month.
