Pierce Elementary Opens New Media Center in Cedar Rapids
Pierce Elementary at 4343 Marilyn Dr NE welcomed students and staff to a new nearly 3,000 square foot media center and computer lab funded by $46 million in bonds approved in December 2000. The space replaces part of the old media center with two new classrooms and features large windows and cloudlike ceiling designs. Eight Rockwell Collins liaisons were honored for their school partnerships, and four teachers earned Space Camp weeks at the U.S. Space and Rocket Center.
