Ursa Major Elementary School on Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson will remain closed for at least a year while the school district works to resolve recently identified seismic safety issues, an official said.
Fort Richardson, part of Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, is seen from Arctic Valley Road in 2020.
“We don’t have plans to try to toggle families back and forth in and out of the school,” Holland said. The district learned of the issues last Thursday, Holland said, after a deeper seismic analysis conducted by an engineering firm. All district schools built before the year 2000 underwent a seismic analysis after the 7.1 earthquake in 2018 while newer school buildings were exempt.
