Business Manager Christie Lentz told the board about summer work including hot‑water‑heater replacements at Oak Flat, security‑camera and cabling upgrades, a TV studio remodel, and planning to convert the middle‑school boiler from oil to propane with McClure. Funding comes from the district’s general fund assigned for capital projects.
