The Fremont City Schools Board approved a resolution and vendor quotes to begin a safety connector project between Ross High School and the district natatorium during the meeting’s consent portion. The motion to approve item 5 was made by Mr. Nalley and seconded by Mrs. Bloom; roll call showed board approval.
When asked about the project schedule, the superintendent said the district is “about a month behind right now” but expects crews to break ground soon. “We are hoping to be under roof by November-ish,” the superintendent said, and added the district’s target for project completion is the end of 2026.
The superintendent said the connector will provide a covered path for students who move between the pool and other building spaces. The board approved the contract package at the meeting; members did not add contingencies beyond schedule questions and accepted the project start as presented.
The vote to approve the connector came as part of the consent agenda; the district did not announce a construction contract award dollar figure in the meeting record.
