Demolition is set to start December first on the old Madison Middle School.  Bartlesville Superintendent of Schools Chuck McCauley told the school board last/Monday night that the district received four bids from firms that would tear the building down, level the ground, and plant grass seed where the building stands.

The schools have contracted with a firm to remove materials that some other entity might want and market them.  Roger Doty told the board that the Madison emblem that was a center court has already been taken up.

Doty says the portable buildings and Madison have already been sold.  Superintendent McCauley says once Madison is torn down he intends to provide a paved surface so that Hoover parents can drop their students off  and pick them up on the north side of the building and then exit onto Baylor.  That would leave the loop in front strictly for busses.
