WAVERLY â A late-emerging option to upgrade Waverly-Shell Rockâs elementary schools was approved Thursday by the Board of Education.
The proposal, a hybrid of some of the four options previously presented to the community, would build two new elementaries to replace Waverlyâs three existing ones and renovate Shell Rock Elementary. The plan would also include some limited funding for high school improvements.
It was one of two recommendations presented to the board by Waverly-Shell Rock Community Schoolsâ facilities task force
âWeâre kind of on crunch time now,â board member Dennis Epley, who made the motion to pursue that option, said before the vote.
