BELTON — SHW Group has completed construction of South Belton Middle School, a 149,346-square-foot facility that serves the Belton Independent School District's sixth- through eighth-graders. SHW constructed the classrooms into grade-level pods with four classrooms clustered around a community multipurpose flex space. The classrooms feature glass walls, and the school's corridors and stairways feature 7-foot high marker boards for interactive lessons outside the classroom. The facility includes sustainable features, including a highly reflective white roof, south-facing windows, smart walls and daylight controls. Funding for construction came from residents voting for a $29 million bond.
