New Britton Elementary School’s renovation project took a step forward Wednesday night when the Hamilton Southeastern (HSE) School Board unanimously approved the Fanning-Howey architectural firm to do the design work, moving forward with the construction plans.
The interior building upgrade is part of the school district’s 10-year plan to maintain the structures within the school corporation. The New Britton project is set to take bids in spring 2018, with completion scheduled Aug. 2019.
