While the halls of our schools are absent of students, they are bustling with a variety of projects during the summer weeks off from school. This year was particularly busy, aside from major construction at RHS, with many projects where you may notice improvements. One in particular is the stately cupola atop Ramsey High School.
Big impact: The iconic landmark that crowns our community's beloved high school is looking better than ever. Ramsey High School's famous cupola has undergone a comprehensive two-year restoration project that has returned this cherished architectural feature to its former glory.
What's been accomplished:
Summer 2024: The school replaced all clock components and gave the cupola a complete professional paint job, restoring its classic appearance that has welcomed students and visitors for decades.
2025: The restoration was completed with major roof repairs, ensuring the cupola will continue to stand proudly over our community for years to come.
Why it matters: The cupola serves as more than just a timekeeper—it's a symbol of Ramsey's commitment to preserving our educational heritage while maintaining the facilities that serve our students and community.
Bottom line: This careful restoration preserves an important piece of Ramsey's architectural identity while ensuring the structural integrity of this beloved landmark for future generations.
