(KMZA)--The Nemaha Central Board of Education is moving forward with plans for a classroom addition at the elementary/middle school and a greenhouse at the high school.
The Board last week approved a proposal from HTK Architects, of Topeka, to provide design services for the two projects.
The three-classroom addition is to connect to the high school, and the greenhouse for the new FFA/Vo-Ag program is to be built west of the tech building.
Superintendent Darrel Kohlman says number of students at the elementary/middle school is more than the building was built for and more room will be needed in the future.
The estimated cost of the three-room addition is nearly $1.6 million and cost for the greenhouse is estimated at $270,000.
Kohlman said funding for the classroom addition will be come from the capital outlay fund and that most of the funding for the greenhouse will be through donations.
