Middle School Classroom Construction Commences
An existing space within Steamboat Springs Middle School (SSMS) is being renovated this summer to create four new classrooms to help relieve overcrowding at the school.

Even with the addition of four new classrooms at SSMS, the school is expected to be at 98% of its capacity in the 2018-2019 school year.
Roofing Projects Progress
Roofing projects across the District are underway. Materials have been craned to the roofs and staged. Reroofing is in progress.
Did you know that the District's 7th Street building has four roofs, each with a different type of roofing material?
