The old La Conner Elementary School, built in 1936, had a date with the wreckers on Tuesday. The school is being demolished brick by brick to make room for the new La Conner Middle School, which will be built in its place. The elementary students were moved across the street to the old middle school campus last year, and the middle school students are being housed in the district administration building until their new school is ready.
