Final pieces of the old Sartori building on 315 Garden Ave. N came down Nov. 2 to make way for the new elementary school.

About 250 bricks were saved from the demolition to hand out to the public as souvenirs. According to school district Spokesperson Randy Matheson, the rest of the bricks will be used to make a walkway on the site.

The old building was torn down to make space for a new elementary school that’s scheduled to open Sept. 2018.

The school will be a kindergarten-through-fifth-grade school and could be designed as a choice school, meaning that parents from neighborhoods throughout the district could choose to enroll their child in the new school. It is designed to be a three-story, 650-student building, and will have flexible learning spaces that can be changed as the needs of students change, and that can be adapted to accommodate new, innovative technologies.

Sartori Elementary School is being made possible by the 2016 voter-approved school construction levy.
