The two old schools were used by the district until the end of 2015 while the two new super schools were being constructed to help replace aging Bristol Township facilities.Įmerson students were transferred to the new school when it opened in January. The state's Department of Environmental Protection and a private contractor hired by the school district monitored the air in and around the schools during the abatement and reported no issues, he said. "It was all contained," the administrator said. To prep for the demolition, abatement crews removed all asbestos from the building over the last several weeks, he said. The school system will pay between $200,000 and $300,000 to tear down each of the schools, business manager John Steffy said. It will take about six weeks to tear down each of the schools, officials said Monday night at the district school board meeting.
Once it is torn down the land will be used for parking lots, driveways and open space by a new "super" elementary school that was built next to the old Buchanan. The old James Buchanan Elementary School off Haines Road faces the same fate beginning Tuesday, Bristol Township operations manager Bob Maloney said Monday night. It is being demolished to make room for parking lots, driveways and open space to be used by the new "super" elementary school that was built adjacent to the old building. One Bristol Township elementary school is in the process of being demolished and another will begin to be torn down Tuesday, officials said.Ĭrews began demolishing the old Ralph Waldo Emerson Elementary School off Mill Creek Road in Bristol Township last week.
