New Minnewaukan school working toward projected November completion
Jean Callahan strolls through the still unfinished Minnewaukan Public School, past bare block walls, dangling ductwork and exposed electrical conduit. The school includes three wings, one for primary (pre-kindergarten to early elementary), one for upper elementary classes, and one for the high school, classrooms in each wing connected by its own commons area.
