‘Functional and beautiful’

SPRING VALLEY — Representatives of the Healy, Bender architectural firm of Naperville were back at Hall High School Wednesday night to show yet another version of the proposed new school building.

The Healy, Bender men have become a familiar feature at school board meetings.
In November 2011, the board hired the firm to conduct a building facility assessment study. The average age of the school is 75 years old, and half of the school is almost 100 years old; school officials have been dealing with crumbling walls, leaking roofs and failing mechanical systems.

Hall officials were offered options including an estimated $18.2 million to keep the current facility and bring it up to code.
