Westfield district project provides space for kindergarten programs

From The Paramus Post: The Westfield (N.J.) school district has converted the former Lincoln Elementary School into an Early Childhood Learning Center. The renovation of the building, which was built in 1922, freed up much-needed space in the district's other six elementary schools. The renovations included three pre-kindergarten disabled classrooms, nine kindergarten classrooms, a transitional kindergarten classroom, an autistic classroom, an art/general classroom, a physical therapy room, two small group instruction rooms, a speech/multipurpose room and offices. The architect is Faridy Veisz Fraytak, and the contractor is Tekton Development Corp.
