T.E. Baxter Elementary enjoys New Look!

The staff and students at T.E. Baxter Elementary are enjoying the additions and renovations to the building. Eight new classrooms were added - two kindergarten classrooms and six classrooms in the 5th grade wing. The 5th graders love having their own lockers! The gymnasium now has rubber flooring in place of carpet. A traverse rock climbing wall was recently added in the gym as well, and students are eager to try it out. Every classroom at Baxter had carpeting removed from the walls and floors. New carpeting was installed on the floors, and a tackable surface wall was added in place of the carpeted walls. The front office was totally reconfigured to provide a security entrance and conference room. We are proud of our new look!

The classroom additions have been completed and are in use. There are two new kindergarten classrooms and six 4th and 5th grades classrooms. Along with the new classrooms additions there are new toilet and locker facilities. In addition during the summer the old reception/office area was completely renovated. The area was reconfigured to make better use of the space, and also to create a more secure traffic flow into the area.

The existing classrooms were all given new paint jobs. The old carpet tack walls have been removed, and in their place new vinyl and cork walls installed. The old carpet in the corridors and classrooms had been removed and replaced with new rubber flooring in the corridors, and carpet tile in the classrooms.

The old gym has received a face lift as well. All the old carpet has been removed from the floor and walls. The floor has a new poured rubber surface, and the walls and ceiling have new paint jobs.
