School will let out early this year for Wadsworth students as the district begins construction on a new high school and three elementary schools.
Superintendent Dale Fortner said the past three months have been spent packing up equipment, furniture and memorabilia.
"We had some other schools come in and buy some used furniture and used equipment," said Fortner. "We will also have some auctions coming in May for the public if they would like to come in and buy any school furnishings and materials that we are not taking to our new building."
List of scheduled auction dates:
- May 22 – Isham Elementary
- May 24 – Wadsworth High School
- May 29 – Valley View Elementary
- June 7 – Overlook Elementary

Fortner said students and staff can look forward to a number of new materials and teaching supplies inside each classroom
"The strongest or the most prominent thing from an instructional standpoint is interactive white boards in every classroom," said Fortner. "It's an exciting time. It's an opportunity for our teachers and our students to be on the cutting-edge of some of the new changes that are happening in education."
This is the final week of classes for students in the school district. Students are scheduled to return to school in the fall on September 6th.
