UPDATES
August 2026
Welcome to the August Construction Update for Crest View Elementary School! As we wrap up the final odds/ends of the summer Bond Project work for Crest View, we hope that you are as excited with the changes as we are. A great deal of work took place over a very short period of time (approximately 10 weeks), and like all summer projects, required complex coordination and cooperation between many entities. Below are a few of the tasks being completed (or have been completed) as your students return to school here in August:
- Roof repair/replacement completed
- Gutters & downspouts installation completed
- Interior plumbing upgrades and painting completed
- Playground sealing and restripping completed
- Punch list items being addressed throughout the school
As always, we cannot thank you enough for all of your patience during this past summer here at Crest View ES. The 2022 BVSD Bond Project would not be possible without your generosity and we are grateful to be a part of a community that always steps up to support our students and the facilities that enhance their educational experience. We hope you and your student(s) have a wonderful start to the 2026 - 27 school year!

Welcome to the July Construction Update for Crest View Elementary School! We hope summer is in full swing for you and your family, as it certainly is from our side of the fence, with plenty of work ahead from now to August. With a good portion of the summer behind us, we are pleased to report that the Crest View project is rolling along smoothly as we work toward substantial completion on Aug. 1 in time to welcome staff and students back to the building. Construction activity planned for the month of July is detailed below:
- Ongoing roof replacement for select sections of the building
- Ongoing installation of sheet metal flashing, gutters and downspouts on the roof
- Complete NW playground seal coating and re-striping
- Complete poured-in-place surface replacement at the SE playground
There are exciting changes coming to Crest View ES, and we sincerely appreciate your patience as we work through the end of this summer project. Note that the school, and parts of the grounds, are still an active construction site. Thus, for the safety of everyone, we ask that you avoid coming to the campus unless absolutely necessary. The Boulder Valley School District is extremely grateful for the support given to us by the voters and we strive to be good stewards in providing the best academic environments possible to support our students.

Welcome to the June Construction Update for Crest View Elementary School! With school officially over for the year and students and staff off for a well-earned summer break, construction at Crest View is well underway. To allow the contractor to make the most of the summer “down time” the school building, along with select spots around the campus, are closed to anyone besides construction personnel. This will be the case for the duration of the summer. Below is an overview of the construction activities that will be taking place throughout the Crest View campus during the month of June:
- Begin and continue removal of select areas of the roof
- Start work on playground resurfacing and upgrades
- Begin work on domestic water/plumbing upgrades within the school
While some parts of the surrounding campus are accessible to the public, we ask that you and your students avoid coming to the school building itself unless specifically authorized to do so. We are very excited about the changes in store for Crest View and sincerely appreciate your patience and support as we work our way through this busy summer of construction. Have a wonderful and relaxing start to your summer break!

Dear Crest View Elementary School Parents and Staff,
We hope this has been a successful school year for you and your student(s)! The BVSD Bond team is excited to let you know construction will be starting soon for renovations provided by the Building for Student Success program. These improvements are coming to Crest View Elementary School thanks to support from the entire BVSD community through passage of the 2022 Bond measure.
In addition to much-needed repair and upgrades to building systems and finishes, highlights of the improvements coming to Crest View Elementary include:
- Repairing/replacing areas of the roof and roof components
- Concrete and paving repair and replacement
- Replacing basketball backboards
- Replacing select kitchen equipment
The full scope of work can be found on the BVSD Building for Student Success website on the Crest View Elementary School project page.
Our $2 million project will begin after the students leave in May and will be complete when school resumes in August.
Student and staff safety is our top priority at Crest View Elementary School and in the Boulder Valley School District. During the summer months, there will be no access to the building and school grounds. For everyone’s safety, please comply with all posted signage and temporary barriers.
All workers who are authorized to be on-site will have numbered project stickers on their hard hats and will have background checks. Generally, there should be no reason for workers to interact with school staff or community members during this project.
We want to keep you informed as the project progresses. We will meet weekly with the architect(s) and construction company and will update you regularly about construction progress during the summer months. Project information, including monthly construction updates can be found on the Crest View Elementary School project website. Specific questions should be directed to me, Gene Temanson at 720-561-5951 or gene.temanson@bvsd.org.
As always, we are extremely grateful to BVSD taxpayers for this project and to you for your continued support of Crest View Elementary School. We hope you share our excitement for the great changes happening here.
Sincerely,
Gene Temanson
BVSD Project Manager
