Observations from a going-to-be 3rd Grader: Gwyn Brown

"Today I went to Horace Mann.  They were not working on the building at the time.  I think they were not working on it because of the weather.  First I walked up to the building. First thing I noticed was the building was the same.  And there were lots of machines.  The stairs and the sidewalk were gone.  The trees were also gone.  So was the playground.  Same for the bench and the table.  The Funnel Ball was gone.  And the gates were locked.  I felt sad because so much changed.

Gwyn Brown, 6/14/2018"

Weeks 5 & 6 Review by Maximilian Biger

 They took out the kitchen. There is going to be a new entryway and we think it will be glass and have plants growing around it.  We don't know where the new kitchen is going to be.  There's a machine that has a dumpster at the end and they put it through the window. They are clearing everything out of the inside of the building.

Weeks 7 & 8 Review by Maximilian Biger

They took away truck loads of dirt. I think they took maybe 6, 7, or 8 truckloads.  There are lots of gravel piles still. They are building a wall and it is right next to a new sidewalk that they will build. And behind that I think they are building a ramp. So the building is handicap accessible.

The Tour: Round 2

I chose this because it shows the stairs that go to the windows that show the gym.  It's really cool because you can look down at the other classes playing AND it's tornado proof because it is made out of cement.  This is the new staircase. It used to be the OLD main staircase too, when the school first opened.  This is the elevator shaft. This is the motor to the elevator.  This is the glass paneling. This is a picture of part of the gym. This guy was working up high. This is a picture of the future playground (and Reed's house, to remain). This is a picture of the air conditioning. This is the art room!  Ms. Cox will LOVE it! This is storage for the art room. Close to finished hallway. New floor and walls. Inside of a classroom. The storage.
