After nearly a decade of periodic discussions, the Lafayette School District Governing Board recently voted in favor of building a new track at Springhill Elementary School. The track is scheduled to be constructed this summer and will be named in honor of recently retired Principal Bruce Wodhams.
The Lafayette Community Foundation (LCF) recently awarded a $5,000 grant to Springhill to help fund the cost of the new track. The Springhill Parent Faculty Club and proceeds from a Bruce Wodhams CD sale will fund the balance. A ribbon cutting ceremony is anticipated at the start of the 2012/13 school year.
"LCF is excited to be a small part of helping the Springhill community build the Principal Bruce Wodhams Running Track," said Teresa Gerringer, Lafayette Community Foundation president. "The project will benefit students for years to come and is a perfect fit for LCF's mission to enhance lives, culture and community. Thank you to the Springhill community for the opportunity to be a partner in this exciting project."
