Renovations underway at Conant High School

Renovations have started at Conant High School in Hoffman Estates on the building's main office and pool. The pool renovations will enhance student opportunities in physical education, athletics and community programs, as well as update aging equipment that can continue on a regular maintenance schedule for many years to come.

All five swimming pools in Palatine-Schaumburg High School District 211 were built between 1975 and 1976, and are heavily utilized from early in the morning until late at night. Additionally, the schools' pools are the most rented spaces by members of the community in the entire district. Due to normal maintenance, depth and regulation issues, and efficient utilization of space, this project affects the most individuals and has the highest completion priority.

Conant's main office and guidance areas also are under renovation, which will replace original building construction from 1962. To increase student safety, lockers in that hallway will be removed and the main offices will serve as checkpoints for school visitors. This renovation will keep Conant's offices up to date with the other schools in the district and increase safety standards.
