The new elementary school being built on Ducketts Lane in Elkridge is on schedule and on budget, said Howard County schools spokesperson Rebecca Amani-Dove this week.

In addition, the exterior brick and stone of the building is scheduled to be completed in mid-June, according to Amani-Dove.

Construction on the building began in March of 2012. At the time, residents testified at a public meeting that the school's construction would cause traffic buildup and quality of life issues.
