Walla Walla Public Schools plans dedication ceremony and public tours of new Support Services facility
Walla Walla Public Schools is cutting the ribbon on its new Support Services facility located at 1174 Entley Street Friday, March 18 at 10 a.m. during a dedication ceremony. Construction on the $3.2 million project, under the direction of general contractor T.W. Clark Construction, LLC, began last March on the 9.5 acre site. The new facility is now fully operational.
The completion of the new Support Services facility represents the second phase of a project to relocate the Support Services and the Transportation Department from 325 S. Park Street to the new Entley Street site. The new Support Services facility houses the warehouse, science center, maintenance, grounds services, print shop, and food services.
The project was funded by state matching dollars from the Edison Elementary construction project bond. Twenty-two subcontractors, including five from the Walla Walla valley, worked on the project.
Public tours of the new Support Services facility and Southeast Washington Transportation Cooperative will be conducted immediately following the ribbon cutting ceremony.
