Planning

Long-term Partners

The district’s partnership with Bray extends back to 2000 when we first helped the district expand the high school. We’ve worked with the district over the past two decades to respond to a rapidly growing community. This latest round of work also includes construction of a new fifth- and sixth-grade intermediate school as well as updates to Westwood Elementary and the middle school.
