We found that people have a lot of investment in this building, and it’s history, and it’s story,” McBride said. “We really started exploring renovation because it’s more cost effective. In the spring and summer, more than 300 community members toured central campus, as the district gathered feedback on how to best renovate the space, McBride said. “We’ve been really happy with the outcome.” “It was an opportunity for him to see the space and give his staff an opportunity to think about some ideas that other schools have done and have incorporated,” Sorensen said. Ken Sorensen, associate principal for operations and technology at Downers Grove North, showed McBride how the district built a gym, science labs and culinary labs and addressed accessibility and safety issues. McBride said he and district officials also toured other schools that renovated older buildings, such as Downers Grove North High School, built in the 1920s.
