 Groundbreaking
Ceremony
On November 19, 2003, the Groundbreaking Ceremony was held for
Fontana Unified School District's elementary school #27, Lime Elementary School. The ceremony was attended
by Fontana Unified School District Board Members, district and county
administration, as well as local government representatives. Also in attendance
were representatives from PSWC Architects, architect of Lime Elementary School,
and Tardos & Yousef, the contractor.
Many speakers noted that Fontana is growing so quickly that
schools get built before "groundbreaking" can be scheduled.
The school at the nine-acre site, located north of Baseline
Avenue and west of Almeria Avenue, was designed to accommodate 600 students on a
single-track calendar. Lime Elementary School is scheduled to open in July 2004.
