<strong>Laramie</strong> <strong>County</strong> <strong>School</strong><br />

<strong>District</strong> 1 started the<br />

2008–2009 school year<br />

with the opening of another<br />

new school <strong>and</strong> several others<br />

in the process of being built.<br />

In September, students at<br />

Baggs Elementary moved into<br />

their new 48,000-square-foot<br />

facility with capacity for 330<br />

kindergarten<br />

through<br />

sixth-grade<br />

students.<br />

On the<br />

heels of that,<br />

students at<br />

Triumph<br />

High <strong>School</strong><br />

moved into<br />

their new 65,000-square-foot<br />

building with capacity for 350<br />

students on Jan. 5, 2009. This<br />

facility is the first of its kind<br />

in the state of Wyoming, as it<br />

houses an alternative school<br />

program.<br />

Also in the works are<br />

Saddle Ridge Elementary<br />

<strong>and</strong> Rossman Elementary,<br />

both of which broke ground<br />

in June 2008. The schools<br />

are slated for completion<br />

in August 2009 <strong>and</strong> will<br />

be approximately the same<br />

size <strong>and</strong> capacity as Baggs<br />

Elementary.<br />

Groundbreaking for the<br />

district’s third comprehensive<br />

high school, South High took<br />

place in June 2008. Featuring<br />

approximately 220,000 square<br />

feet <strong>and</strong> 80 state-of-the art<br />

classrooms, the new school<br />

is slated for completion in<br />

August 2010.<br />

Other projects include<br />

phased-in major facilities<br />

remodeling at Central High<br />

<strong>School</strong>, East High <strong>School</strong> <strong>and</strong><br />

Afflerbach Elementary.<br />
