ARKANSAS, USA — Because of numerous construction challenges, Fort Smith Public School’s Peak Innovation Center will not open until late March. The FSPS school board was told in November the facility would be finished on Dec. 23, allowing students to attend the center Jan. 4 when school resumed.
“Construction challenges including supply chain issues and labor shortages have delayed the opening of Peak Innovation Center,” said Zena Featherston Marshall, FSPS executive director of communication and community partnerships.
As of Tuesday, work continues on multiple aspects of the building like safety, electrical, parking, exterior site work, and equipment calibration, Marshall said.
