FCPS construction update: Mary Britton Middle, CTE Hill, Harrison preschool addition and Ross STEM Academy progress reported
Summary
The district provided progress reports on four major construction projects: Mary Britton Middle School (87% complete), the Hill CTE facility (about 98% on floors, level‑1 emphasis), Harrison Elementary preschool addition and HVAC upgrades, and Ross STEM Academy for Girls (site work and initial walls).
Fayette County Public Schools presented a monthly construction update on Feb. 24 covering major capital projects under way across the district.
Myron, the district’s chief operating officer, told the board that Mary Britton Middle School construction on Polo Club Boulevard is about 87% complete with casework, storefronts and terrazzo underway and exterior metal and site grading scheduled as weather permits. The Hill CTE facility on Midland Avenue is approaching finalization of Level 1 work with approximately 98% of certain flooring complete; presenters said more ceiling, MEP and finishing work remains and that some exterior landscaping and obstacle-course grading are weather-dependent.
District staff said Harrison Elementary’s preschool addition and HVAC upgrades are progressing with drywall, windows and mechanical work in place, and that Ross STEM Academy for Girls is about 20% complete with excavation, ICF walls, masonry and geothermal drilling underway. Construction project pages were provided for public reference on the district website (FCPS.net with project-specific paths).
Board members discussed a possible spring unveiling for the Hill CTE facility and a larger community ribbon-cutting; staff said a spring date (potentially June) is being planned and that the district earlier considered holding a budget workshop at the site but construction timing prevented it.
No board action was required; the presentation was informational.
