Over the past six weeks, students at the Brent Bus Depot at X-Park have had a front-row seat to history as demolition of the original Brent building nears completion. Large excavators and cranes have carefully dismantled the structure piece by piece, clearing the way for a new chapter to rise in its place. Construction of the new, state-of-the-art elementary school is scheduled for completion in June 2027. The project will feature upgraded classrooms and flexible learning spaces, enhanced safety systems, expanded accessibility, green outdoor areas, and two modern playgrounds—one designed for early childhood students and one for elementary students.
