Architects hired for Big Timber Grade School four room addition
Missoula firm Witwer and Price will draft plans for a four room addition to Big Timber Grade School at an estimated cost of 115000 to 150000. Edward Argenbright says a firm representative will meet with the board for specifics and that voter approval would be required if the project moves forward. The need stems from cramped special help and music rooms, limited library space, and future growth in enrollment and programs.
