The dedication ceremony for
Meadowlark Ridge
Elementary School
was held April 14, 2002

The new addition to Meadowlark Ridge Elementary School doubled the size of this attendance center. New construction included classrooms for kindergarten, first and second grades and for music and art, a multipurpose room for lunch, physical education and school programs and a kitchen serving area and staff dining area.

The existing building was completely renovated. This included converting the old multipurpose room into a larger library/media center, remodeling the office area for student support services, new flooring, paint and lighting in existing classrooms, converting regular classrooms to special education classrooms and a teacher workroom, remodeling space for a demonstration classroom, a new roof and a new air conditioning, heating and ventilation system.

An integrated voice, data and video system connects every classroom in Salina USD 305 to an unlimited number of outside resources to support classroom learning. Distance learning classrooms are in place in both high schools, and the district uses a combination of classroom computers and computer labs to provide access to technology
