New Oakdale Elementary School Will Welcome Students in the New Year!

In 2016, voters in District 66 approved a bond to rebuilt multiple schools in the district. Among those was Oakdale Elementary School, located at 98th & Center St. We were honored to be chosen for the project that entailed rebuilding a new school on the site of the former building.

We were proud to complete the project on deadline and in enough time to welcome the student body of about 300 students back in January, after the holiday break. The modern design of the new school includes updated safety features and an efficient use of space, and the end result is a beautiful new building!

The Prairie construction team recently attended a ribbon-cutting event that officially opened the school. Current students as well as members of the Oakdale Elementary Class of 1936 were among the first to see the brand-new building.

This was a fun project for the Prairie Construction team to be involved with because we love to think of the students’ excitement about learning in a brand-new school.
