Thomas Intermediate
History
This educational facility was built in 1963 and originally named Ervin H. Thomas School in honor of the previous Superintendent of Schools. The structure was designed as a Junior High School with a large gym/auditorium but was used for grades one through six after completion. The facility had eight classrooms, gym, office, lobby, cafeteria, and small library.
As enrollment increased, additions were made to accommodate the student population. In 1976 the cafeteria was expanded, and a larger library and two classrooms were added. A few years later seven more classrooms, a resource room, and restrooms were completed. The 1996-1997 school year began in a completely remodeled facility with a total of twenty-four classrooms, a new library, a music room, art room, Title 1 lab, teacher work areas, and new administrative area.
