Bunche Middle School Undergoes Innovative Renovation and Construction

Cascade Patch has previously reported that Bunche Middle School students have temporaily relocated to the former Archer High School facility this school year due to construction updates underway at Bunche, but now see how the plans are going.

According to TalkUp APS, "the renovated Bunche Middle School facility will consist of a new auditorium, gymnasium, academic and support spaces, and a renovated and relocated kitchen and cafeteria." 

Something the parents may like is the new reconfigured parking, drop-off and bus areas making that morning drop-off and evening pickup a little bit easier.  APS also says, "students will be able to enjoy a new natural grass football field that will also be used for soccer and lacrosse teams at Bunche Middle School, along with a new 400 meter track, new softball field."

Upcoming dates on the project timeline include:

8/09/13  Design Development
8/13/13  Project Committee Meeting #3
8/14/13  Preliminary Submittal to GDOE
8/16/13  50% Construction Documents
8/21/13  Project Committee Meeting #4

Note: The temporary location of Bunche Middle is at Archer High School is located at 2250 Perry Blvd, North West, Atlanta, GA 30318.
