When the old school was torn down, the community wanted to make sure the new school kept a historical feel that would also feature green design elements and endure for many years. For the sloped areas, metal roofing was the only option that would meet the criteria. Metal Roofing Systems Inc. supplied 39,500 square feet of NS150 Kynar 500 pre-finished 24-gauge standing-seam metal roofing in Cordavan. The metal roof gives the school the classic schoolhouse feel the community wanted to maintain, along with the sustainability and modern convenience that a metal roof will provide for years to come.
