Current Timeline: Lima Ridge Elementary School is currently on track for completion by October 2024–two months after the start of school in August. Rather than let this building sit empty throughout the entire 2024-2025 school year, we have created a plan to utilize it as soon as we can. The students assigned to the new school will begin their school year temporarily located in the old North Elementary building (K-3) or Broad Peak Elementary (4). Once the new school is ready for move-in, the Lima Ridge students and staff members at North and Broad Peak will relocate to the new building.
