Construction Zone Ahead
Campus Changes Underway, Expanding Buildings, Impacting Flow
September 13, 2018
The future of the school is en route for change as remodeling and renovations on structures like locker rooms and science labs begin. While this process will be going on for the next few years, it will have impacts on both present and future students.
According to Principal John Sloan, the most imminent change on its way, scheduled to begin in November and take the majority of the year, are the expansions and additions of all athletic locker rooms and changing rooms, in both the school and the changing rooms, a much needed modification to the school.
“It’s going to really bring our facilities up to where we want them to be,” Sloan said. “Opening up those spaces and adding the additions is going allow for more comfortable and appropriate locker spaces to accommodate all of our athletes.”
This construction won’t affect students this year as all exterior work on locker rooms is happening this year while all interior work will start over this coming summer.
“I think having construction on the locker rooms would be really helpful,” girls soccer manager, junior Kerri Kenny said. “Everything’s just chaotic, some lockers don’t even close and your stuff can get stolen, so maybe having more safety would be amazing.”
Along with the locker rooms, there will be several other developments including a new grandstand at the football field, new bleachers and dugouts at the softball field, expansions on Career and Technical Education (CTE) classrooms, advancements in safety to the front of the school and most notably the expansion of the science building, which will include new classrooms and lab areas.
Chemistry and physics teacher, Carlos Montoya, said he is one of the many teachers thrilled for these new additions.
“I think it’s going to be great to have students not as crowded in the science classrooms,” Montoya said. “Once everything is built I think it’s going to be nice having so much more extra space to use. We’ll have more room to do more fun and creative things instead of just sitting in desks all day.”
While these additions are important and in high demand, the process comes with some concerns. With the construction, there is a dropping number of available student parking spots, causing a growing waitlist until the exact number of spots is determined. Sophomore Hailey Allen said that she is worried that there will be no spots available by the time she gets her license.
“I want to be able to drive to and from school on my own time,” Allen said. “I’d like to be able to get here as early and leave as late as I want and to not have to wait half an hour for someone to be able to pick me up. I’m worried I won’t be able to do that when I get my license in a month.”
Due to renovations on the field house and locker rooms, a fence is surrounding the field house parking lot, forcing cars into the student parking lot. Students and coaches either have to walk around the fence or go through the school to get to the field house, sports fields and tennis courts. Varsity tennis player, sophomore Samantha Lupul, said it this is an obstacle in her schedule.
“I’m glad that they are expanding the science building,” Lupul said. “But walking from the locker rooms to the tennis courts has become its own workout.”
All large projects should be completed by summer of 2020 with smaller projects and extra modifications going on until summer of 2022.

A lot of people care about [this show],” Morneault said. “I have a lot of friends on the cast and on the crew, but I’ve also grown and gained friendships through the show, even as director where I may be a little more stricter than normal. And I am very grateful for everyone I’ve gotten to work with.”](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/DSC_0657-1200x800.jpg)

Kato’s painting is a political piece inspired by a photo of elementary schoolers in the street protesting against ICE. “I think it's also symbolic because they're surrounded by snow, which can represent ICE, and they are still marching,” Kato said. “[The kids] are not stopping until equality or justice is served, which I think is really important to represent and show.” Photo by John Pinion](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/Screenshot-2026-03-26-114740.png)

Yearbook won 43, newspaper won 14 and broadcast took home nine. “I think [the ILPC awards] are a great way to give the kids some acknowledgement for all of their hard work,” newspaper and yearbook adviser Paige Hert said. “They typically spend the year covering everyone else’s big moments, so it’s really cool for them to be celebrated so many times and in so many different ways.”](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/edited-ILPC.jpg)

It set the tone for the games after and has really impacted and sparked this whole playoff run.” Photo by Allie Tseng](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/allie-boerne00159-1200x800.jpg)

Hill rushed for three touchdowns in the 43-36 loss against Frisco Wakeland last Friday, but the Timberwolves were eliminated from playoff contention. “[I’m] just happy I got to experience the game with my brothers,” Hill said. “I’m going to remember how close and how enjoyable everything was with these guys. They are my brothers for life. Just waking up and grinding together, and proving the naysayers wrong [was my favorite part].”
