Cedar Rapids to Build Two New Elementary Schools on Hoover and Van Buren Sites
Cedar Rapids Community School District won approval to construct two new elementary schools on the Hoover and Van Buren sites due to overcrowding. The plan adds 600-seat facilities with future population growth anticipated, costing about 48 million dollars, funded by the SAVE program. Existing schools will be razed after completion slated for August 2027, while Garfield and Arthur elementary structures transform into apartments and the arts academy respectively.
