Crossland set to build new Siloam Springs HS.(NW Journal: A Look at News From Northwest Arkansas)

Crossland Construction Co. was recently awarded a bid to construct a new high school for Siloam Springs for $31.8 million. The 298,000-SF school will be constructed on 55 acres in northeast Siloam Springs.

The new high school will feature controlled-access security to all doors and security cameras throughout the interior and exterior of the building. Classrooms will have multimedia capabilities.

The school will include a large multi-use media center, an auditorium and a television broadcast studio. The new school will be open for enrollment in the fall of 2011.

The existing high school location on West Jefferson Street will become a middle school housing seventh- and eighth-graders.

Hight-Jackson Associates is the architecture firm on the project. Subcontractors include Lightning Electric, Fayetteville Mechanical and Franklin & Son.
