The state's third-largest school district has just approved an estimated $20 million in building projects and is already making plans for another $22.5 million in construction.

The Edmond School Board on Monday authorized four major projects. The most prominent is a $13.7 million upgrade to the Edmond Memorial High School football stadium.

Being awarded that task is Key Construction of Oklahoma City. That business is already on site at the school, working on gymnasium renovations as well as a new storm shelter, which will double as a band room.

The upcoming stadium expansion will allow Edmond Memorial to host varsity football games for the first time in Bulldog history. The stadium seating will be expanded and there will be an enlarged press box, as well as more concessions areas. Similar projects were completed at Edmond Santa Fe High School two years ago. Edmond North High School's upgraded stadium will open this fall.
