The Morongo Unified School District has announced the official groundbreaking of a brand-new kitchen facility at Twentynine Palms Junior High School, a project that marks a significant investment in the health, wellness, and educational experience of students and staff.
This $5.5 million project is being partially funded by Measure C, the local school bond measure approved by voters last November, aiming to improve school facilities and modernize infrastructure to ensure students have access to a safe, modern, and functional learning environment.
The new facility will feature a state-of-the-art kitchen equipped with two speedlines, serving windows, outdoor landscaping, and an expansive, covered outdoor dining area to provide students with a more comfortable dining experience in warmer temperatures.
The project is being built by Ledesma & Meyer Construction Company and Ruhnau Clark Architects, both firms recognized for delivering high-quality educational facilities.
Construction is scheduled for completion in March 2026.
