Seymour tornado recovery moving steadily

Seymour students displaced by a March tornado that severely damaged the school may be back in the school building in a few weeks, Iowa Public Radio reported at the beginning of the month. Elementary students are already back, which is good; the rest are in a former nursing home.

The Seymour girls’ basketball team is playing “home” games in Centerville, KCCI reported earlier this month. The Warriorettes were still undefeated through last Friday, when Ankeny Christian Academy forfeited.

The school’s website announced it was seeking bids on building “two gymnasiums, a stage, music instructional spaces, locker rooms, fitness area, with support and storage spaces.” The Depression-era gym was too damaged to remain. AnĀ elevator will be attached to the original school building. The meeting on those bids was Monday.
