10th Avenue Construction & Building Closures Notice
10th Avenue Construction & Building Closures Notice
The city has notified us of ongoing closures along portions of 10th Avenue starting now throughout the end of the school year. Families and visitors are encouraged to plan ahead, allow extra travel time, and use alternate routes as needed.
As we prepare for a busy summer of renovations, please be aware that Antigo High School will be closed to all staff and visitors from June 1 through August 9. During this time, there will be no access to the building due to construction and safety requirements.
Summer school programming and weightlifting activities will be relocated to the middle school.
We appreciate your flexibility and understanding as we work to improve our facilities. Additional updates will be shared as needed.
In November 2024, our community approved a $54 million capital referendum for the Unified School District of Antigo. A portion of the funds will be used to build a brand-new elementary school building, John H. Bradley Elementary School.
Construction on John H. Bradley Elementary began in August 2025, with an anticipated completion date of December 1, 2026. This page will be updated regularly as work progresses. Please check back for the most recent updates!
