In 1997 and early 1998, the school was blessed with the following additions that were made possible from the Lighting the Way campaign: a 16,000 square-foot Pepin Gymnasium; a 5,000 square-foot outdoor street hockey/basketball area; a redesigned west gate on Oakland Beach Avenue; a 6,000 square-foot west wing of classrooms (including a computer laboratory which provided internet access for the students); and a new website to keep the community up-to-date with school news, developments, and information.
