The long, wet spring, means construction at Boonville High School is not going according to plan.

"The weather, if it cooperated, they were going to pour a floor in the courtyard area last Friday. It was postponed until today and obviously today with the rain, hopefully tomorrow," said Boonville Principal Jay Webster.

The project includes six new classrooms, a courtyard, two new bathrooms and an expanded weight room. The sprinkles outside forced construction crews inside to work on a new sprinkler system, which can get a little muddy for students and teachers.

"I heard was a jack hammer across the hall tearing things out and I looked around and the kids didn't even flinch. They were just working. I looked at the teachers they were working," said Webster.

However, the crews were able to at least get the construction started.

"We were fortunate to get the pad poured and the roof over and get it enclosed so we've kind of beat them to the punch a little bit so only a couple of days have really been affected," said Boonville Superintendent Mark Ficken.

A little rain may mean a big wait for new classrooms.

"End of September, first of October. That's when they're hoping to have things wrapped up. I think if weather continues to be like this that will be pushed back," said Ficken.

The construction contract calls for all outside work to be finished by the first home football game.
