Work is proceeding on schedule for a new entrance and expansion/renovation project at Clear Lake High School.

Project Manager Tyler Mensink, from Dean Snyder Construction in Clear Lake, said demolition has been completed inside and outside for the $2,104,000 project.   Currently, the former courtyard is being readied for new flooring to be poured which will extend the current cafeteria dining space and office to the north.
