VJS is overseeing the Silverbrook project, which includes a 90,000-square-foot expansion with two classroom wings, a new gym/cafeteria/kitchen and a new library. The project also remodels existing space, and when complete in August 2014 will be the home of fifth- and sixth-grade students for the West Bend School District. (Staff photo by Kevin Harnack)
