APS to Hold Grand Opening for Aurora Hills 

Aurora Public Schools will hold a grand opening celebration for the new Aurora Hills Middle School on Saturday, February 11 at 10 a.m. The school is located at 1009 South Uvalda Street, just north of the old Aurora Hills school site.

The new school replaces a 1973 building constructed without windows, classroom walls or doors. The new school will benefit students and staff by providing a much improved learning environment for the Aurora Hills International Baccalaureate Middle Years Programme.

The new building was funded as part of the $215 million bond approved by Aurora voters in November 2008. The bond is also funding improvements at every APS school.

Members of the media are welcome to attend the dedication of the school. The event will also include free food, activities and building tours.
