The Manhattan Beach Unified School District Board of Trustees hosted a ribbon cutting ceremony on Tuesday for the new Costa math and science building.
Parents, students and MBUSD staff attended the event. The night began with an introduction from Superintendent Dr. Michael Matthews, followed by a Marching Band performance and speeches from MBUSD Board President Ida VanderPoorte and Deputy Superintendent Dr. Rick Bagley.
“We believe that the new building has exceeded our expectations,” Matthews said. “This building is ready for “21st-Century Learning” and there is still so much more technology to be put into it.”
After the ribbon cutting, guests were invited inside to tour the new building.
“I think that the building will inspire higher and better learning,” Executive Director of the Manhattan Beach Education Foundation Susan Warshaw said. “I believe that it is set up so that kids are able to work together more efficiently.”
