Los Alamos Public Schools representatives Joan Ahlers and Herb McLean conducted a teacher tour Wednesday afternoon of Aspen Elementary School.

Construction of the $18.3 million project approaches the mid-point in completion.  

“We are very pleased with the progress that Jaynes Corp has made with the project,” Ahlers said. “They are a very competent contractor and we have fortunate with the weather. We have experienced zero weather delays. That is rare for a project that spans an 18 month build-out period. We are looking forward to occupying the new building soon.”
