Elementary school in Georgia is undergoing a $13 million renovation

The Marietta (Ga.) school board has approved a $13 million renovation of West Side Elementary School. 

The renovations to the school include a cafeteria addition, more parking, a curbside canopy and enhanced carpool lane, a new service entrance and an overhaul of the building’s interior, reports The Marietta Daily Journal. 

Funds for the project will come from a mix of state and local funding. 

The district is expecting to receive about $2.4 million from the Georgia Department of Education for the project. The rest will be funded by a 1% sales tax for education that voters approved last fall. 

Parrish Construction Group is the construction manager.
