Summary
At its meeting, the Arlington School District board approved a contract with McGranahan PBK Architects to deliver capital-levy projects funded by the 2024 capital levy and adopted several board policies, including an opioid-overdose reversal policy (Narcan). Student advisers offered advisory yes votes on the McGranahan contract.
Arlington School District Board of Directors voted to approve a contract with McGranahan PBK Architects for architectural and engineering services tied to projects funded by the district’s 2024 capital levy, and the board adopted several policies on first or second reading, the board announced at its meeting.
The McGranahan contract covers multiple facility projects funded by the 2024 capital levy across district sites, and the board adopted policy updates and new/adopted policies including an opioid-related overdose reversal policy, procedures on employment and volunteer disclosures, insurance policy updates and several transportation, facilities and project-acceptance policies.
Why it matters: The McGranahan contract directs capital-levy money to roofing, paving, kitchen equipment, ramps, interior work and other improvements at many schools and district facilities. The policy adoptions include a districtwide directive to carry and make available opioid-overdose reversal medication and updates to transportation and project-closing procedures — changes that affect safety, maintenance and day-to-day operations.
