News of the New Building To Come

The following email was sent this past week regarding the new building for Maeser Prep:

Dear Maeser Community,



We are excited to let you know that we are moving forward with plans for our new campus located at 550 South 350 West, Lindon. The land purchase is complete and we are in the process of completing our construction financing. Watch for information on our upcoming groundbreaking celebration in the next couple of weeks. The construction schedule is anticipated to take five months. The contractor will be running double crews and working six days a week and nights in order to finish the building as quickly as possible. Our contractor, Peck Ormsby Construction, has an excellent reputation and years of experience. We are confident in their ability to complete the building in a timely manner. To ensure that school will begin as scheduled on September 7, we are in the process of finalizing plans for a temporary location in Lindon.


We have also been busy adding new faculty to our already incredible Maeser Team. Their bios will be posted on our website soon.

Please feel free to email info@maeserprep.org with any questions.

Thanks for your continued support!
