Melmark School Building Addition
With 20 new classrooms designed to meet the accessibility needs of special education students as well as ADA requirements, the two-story addition adjoins the current building.
“Maintaining a safe environment and accommodating all individuals’ needs is always Bancroft’s top priority, but is especially so amidst the current COVID-19 pandemic. Construction crews continue to adhere to all social distancing and virus mitigation measures recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).”
