The former Croyden Avenue School building is being renovated to house Kalamazoo RESA’s Young Adult Program (YAP), Preprimary Evaluation Team (PET) and Great Start early childhood programs.

 

Work on the remodeling project is scheduled to be complete in June 2011. The renovated building will be named Kalamazoo RESA West Campus.

 

Work on the renovation is on schedule and on budget. Demolition is nearing completion and contractors have completed framing and have started drywall installation inside the building. The building’s pool has been removed and conference room space will take its place.

 

The program previously housed at Croyden moved in fall 2010 to the new WoodsEdge Learning Center. Both the WoodsEdge construction and Croyden renovation projects are part of the $25.4 million bond proposal that Kalamazoo County voters approved in November 2007.
