Did you know?
Epoxy countertops are made from an oven-molded combination of epoxy, silica, and other filler materials. This creates a flat, non-porous lab work surface that’s easy to clean, durable, and resistant to hazards. High resistance to chemicals, heat, moisture, and bacteria make epoxy resin a favorite work surface for labs all over the world.
Work on footings and foundations is nearly complete for the new cafeteria and music addition along Fourth Street
The elevator shaft in the welcome center is built and awaits exterior metal cladding and elevator equipment to be installed later this year
