School Board discusses air conditioning upgrades for middle and high schools

During the Littlestown School Board's Facilities, Planning, and Safety meeting on November 26, 2024, a significant focus was placed on improving classroom environments, particularly through the installation of air conditioning. Board members discussed the urgent need to replace outdated heating valves and address long-standing air conditioning leaks that have affected the middle and high school facilities.
