• The project team has been meeting with school staff since last spring to understand the school's needs and develop the design.

• The design is proceeding on schedule and bidding will occur in November/December. 

• Construction for Phase 1 projects will begin in the spring/summer of 2024.

Community Engagement 

To ensure the school community is engaged in the project, the project manager (PM) will work directly with the school principal to discuss the identified renovations, meet with the architect, and coordinate the construction schedule. The principal will decide which school staff or parents might need to be  involved with the design process depending on the scope of work. The project manager will share information with the entire school staff at key milestones through the design process.
