AKRON —  Work on Tippecanoe Valley High School's renovation project should be "substantially complete" by the end of October, said The Skillman Corp. Project Manager Scott Rogers.
Rogers stated that during the Tippecanoe Valley School Board's monthly public work session on Thursday. The Skillman Corp. is the construction management company for the project.
The project, which started in spring 2023, includes pool renovations and a new auditorium and multipurpose room.
"The pool, we successfully turned it over," Rogers said. "Unfortunately, there were a few bugs with the pool heater. We're going to work with the school to get that replaced."
Workers are still installing seats in the auditorium.
"We've still have to get all the aisle lights for the stairs and everything that will be coming in this month," he stated.
"In the multipurpose area, we've just been finishing up getting all the walls painted ... getting the grid started in the locker rooms and corridors, lighting and everything.”
Rogers said a few smaller items on the project may still be done in November.
An open house for the project is 2-4 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 27. Everyone is welcome to come.
