It's hard to believe that in a few months the first batch of students will return to
Van Ness Elementary, for the first time
since 2006. With initial renovations and plans for the 2015-16 school year underway, the school is hosting a
"Showcase" community meeting on Wednesday, June 17, from 6 to 8 pm.
The Head of School, Cynthia Robinson-Rivers, will be there, as will the initial teachers. The interior and exterior renovation plans will also be on display, as will the new playground designs.
The school is opening with PK-3, PK-4, and kindergarten classes, with plans to add one grade each year until 5th grade is reached.
