Nowata Public Schools breaks ground on a new practice facility and dressing room.
The project is part of a $16.8 million bond that was passed by voters on April 1st. Superintendent Mindy Englett says athletics plays an important role in education. The upgrades are part of a district-wide effort to upgrade athletic facilities in Nowata. Other parts of the upgrade passed by the bond are new lighting and scoreboards. Board of Education President Kurt Bashford says this was a community effort.
The practice facility and dressing rooms are expected to be completed by the summer.
