Kraus-Anderson Continues Work in Minnesota School District

Maple River Schools in Mapleton, Minn., recently began construction on another project included in a district long-range facilities plan. Construction management firm Kraus-Anderson recently began work on two new classrooms and an outdoor track and field facility, according to a news release. The track facility will include a discus & shotput area, as well as a sand-jump pit.

The district partnered with ISG to design the project, which has an estimated completion date of July 2025. Funding comes from a $63.3-milllion bond referendum passed in February 2020, the news release reports.

As part of the same facilities plan, Kraus-Anderson recently completed the construction of Maple Rivers Schools, a K–12 school that covers four rural counties in Minnesota. The 200,000-square-foot campus includes three gymnasiums, a 500-seat auditorium, and a middle/high-school wing with specialized career-tech classrooms, according to the news release.
