The district’s Building and Grounds department has outlined key infrastructure improvements for the upcoming fiscal year, focusing on essential maintenance and facility upgrades.

At the high school, planned repairs include fixing deteriorating sidewalks, resurfacing the parking lot, installing new carpeting in classrooms, and addressing ongoing roof leaks. The middle school will see tuck pointing, new smoke hatches, sidewalk repairs, and LED lighting upgrades. Adjustments to seclusion rooms will also ensure compliance with state regulations.

Van Allen Elementary will undergo brickwork repairs, gutter replacements, tree trimming, and classroom furniture updates. Lincoln Elementary and Salem School improvements include updated bathroom partitions, handicapped parking space repainting, and expanded fencing for playground security. A sewer line inspection at Salem will help address drainage concerns.

Athletic facility upgrades include new sidewalks, improved field drainage, fencing repairs, and leasing an automated field marking system. Additional projects across the district include repainting lockers, extending the chapel stage, and replacing outdated music performance equipment.

The district also plans to purchase a new mower and install updated camera systems on school buses. More details will be finalized as bids are received and schedules are set.
