February 2019

Thanks to voters who overwhelmingly passed the 2017 Construction Bond, Bend-La Pine Schools has numerous construction projects underway at sites throughout the district, including the construction of two new schools.

Learn about all of the projects associated with the 2017 Construction Bond on our webpage.

New High School

Bend-La Pine Schools' new high school will be located in southeast Bend near the intersection of Knott Road and SE 15th Street. Architects have shared exterior and interior renderings (see them on the New High School webpage). Irrigation work will begin in February. Building construction is slated to begin in July after a general contractor is selected in June.

New Elementary School

Construction is full steam ahead at our new elementary school, pictured below, located at the corner of Cooley Road and O.B. Riley Road in north-central Bend. The 600-seat elementary school is two stories and features a dedicated gym and media center. The school is slated to open in the fall of 2019.

Pilot Butte Middle School

Construction for Phase 1 of this 50-year-old school is complete. The school is receiving a full interior modernization, starting with Buildings E and F. The office was relocated to create a secure lobby and the science classrooms have been modernized. The music classrooms were leveled out to create a more accessible and better learning environment. Phase 2, which includes Buildings B and D, is underway with the goal of completion by fall of 2019.

Marshall High School

This project, slated to be complete this spring, will add two new classrooms to the school as well as a full gym and athletic area. The new classrooms will help expand Career and Technical Education offerings at the school.
