Ground was broken on a high school renovation project in richland county in may of 2019.

That project is now finally reaching completion.

News 10 bureau chief gary brian explains how you can take a look inside.

Gar} "between covid-19 and a school renovation project, the last year has been far from normal for students here in richland county.

But as you can see behind me, the school renovation project here at the high school is beginning to wrap up."

There's not much that looks the same inside the freshly renovated richland county high school.

Originally build in the 1950's...the updates have updated the way students learn.

"one of our priorities was to accomplish the creation of a much more modern learning environment and i think we've been able to do that."

The project made the school safer and more accessible.

The commons has been moved from the basement to a large open area on the first floor.

"we have spaces that allow for collaboration among students.

Spaces that are common spaces for students to be.

Considerable improvements to classroom teaching spaces and the instructional technology that goes along with that."

Renovations added an auxiliory gym.

Across the hall is the school's theatre.

It is the last part of the project to wrap up.

"we've had challenges with the supply chain of getting materials and that's our issue right now."

The first production is planned for april...but school leaders hope to show off the school before then.

Thanks to the pandemic...the district is releasing videos instead of hosting an open house.

Bringing an end to atleast the renovation project.

"things are feeling much more normal.

As i said i'm looking forward to those completely being in the rear view mirror and that'll be a good day."

Gar} "we've placed a link to the videos on our website at wthitv.com just click on this story.

In richland county, gary brian news 10."
