District reports major progress on phase‑2 referendum projects, athletic upgrades funded by private donation

The district presented a visual update on phase‑2 capital referendum and operational projects, highlighting extensive construction and facility improvements completed or underway across campuses. Administrators credited a private family donation for funding athletic upgrades including a ceiling‑mounted batting cage, new gym padding and an overhaul of the tennis shed, and said contractors and students helped upcycle old materials for shop projects.

On major infrastructure, staff reported new EPDM roofing, window replacements, and replacement of rooftop HVAC units at the high school; the fire‑alarm system is "almost complete" and will be commissioned before the school year, administrators said. Middle‑school renovations include ADA bathroom updates, a secured vestibule for Entrance 3 and extensive utility and structural work. The transportation building foundation work is underway and steel erectors are scheduled to mobilize.

Administrators emphasized energy‑efficiency improvements (district‑wide LED retrofits), repurposing of materials for educational uses and improved ADA accessibility in athletics seating. They encouraged board members and the public to view the presentation photos and drive by active construction sites.
