Woodland Public Schools is hosting a grand opening ceremony Aug. 31 to introduce the community to its new high school campus.
This summer, construction crews finished building a 154,000-square-foot Woodland High School campus at 1500 Dike Access Road. Altogether, the building is expected to accommodate a growing student population for several decades.
The campus was built with a number of cost-saving measures in mind, including cheaper exterior walls made of concrete instead of brick. With a greater capacity, the new campus will also be safer for students, officials said, having no portable classrooms outside.
The grand opening celebration starts at 6 p.m., and the district is asking people to show up at the main entrance about half an hour early.
