Facilities staff told the Palmdale Aerospace Academy Board that earlier in the week the campus experienced icy conditions. The facilities team enacted ice protocols, arrived early to scrape and salt walkways, closed exterior stairwells and communicated with staff and students; campus operations reopened by about 10:30 a.m., the presenter said.

The director of facilities also reported that work on an amphitheater audio upgrade is scheduled to start tomorrow, with the goal of improving sound for performances, activities and for an upcoming robotics tournament that will use the outdoor space. "We are hopeful that the project will be done and ready to go for our upcoming robotics tournament," the facilities presenter said.

Board members thanked facilities staff for the early response and for preparations for events; the board was reminded the interleague robotics tournament is open to the public next Saturday and that volunteers are welcome.

No board action was required.
