Construction Project At Southwestern Schools Begin

Crews have broken ground on a $2.5 million construction project at Southwestern Wisconsin Community School District. By the start of the 2021-22 school year, residents will see a new eight-lane track; baseball, discus, football, shot put and softball fields; jump runways for track-and-field events; and a new school playground. The facility upgrades have been years in the making. District voters passed a measure April 7 approving the renovations and improvements.
