| Update: Air Conditioning Project Work has begun on a major capital project to install air conditioning in each of our elementary and middle school buildings. The project is scheduled for completion at the start of the 2017-2018 school year.
For the remainder of the 2016-2017 school year, most of the work will occur outside of the building or during after school hours. The majority of the work is planned for the summer months. While work occurs on this project, the District is committed to maintaining a safe, clean, and conducive learning environment for our students. Safety and security procedures have been established in each of our buildings. Additionally, all workers will have the same required clearances as our employees and will follow sign-in procedures to access the buildings.
District Facilities Director Rick Marciniak will oversee all aspects of this project for and will work with the building principal to ensure the project progresses as planned. Principals will provide their parents with school specific details and updates as necessary throughout the project.
