The Farmersville school building, an outbuilding and all demolition debris have been cleaned from the work site on Jackson Street.

Work continues to grade the site and add dirt. The site is being filled in with dirt trucked over from a pile on Manning Road created from the construction of the new school. The dirt was also used to fill in the lot in Germantown.

The Village of Farmersville voted in its April meeting to allow a group of Farmersville Alumni to place the building’s cornerstone at Depot Pointe Park in town. See School Cornerstone Saved for Memorial

At the meeting, a group of citizens representing the Farmersville Area Business Association, the Farmersville Historical Society and the alumni group also requested the former school flagpole be placed at the Historical Society’s log house on California Street. Village Council also approved that step.

The cornerstone has been removed from the site. The flagpole is still at the school site as of Monday.

In his construction update at the April Valley View Board of Education meeting, board member Tyson Dillon acknowledged that the cornerstone is being preserved and that the flagpole would also be used in Farmersville at the log house.
