Middle school construction progressing; roof curb leak and summer HVAC work noted
Summary
A school facilities staff member updated the board on Jackson County Middle School construction progress, noting a leaking roof curb that likely must be replaced and planned HVAC work during spring break and summer.
A staff member overseeing construction told the Jackson County Public Schools board that work at Jackson County Middle School is progressing but that some tasks must wait for school breaks and the summer.
“Everything is going well right now over at the middle school,” the staff member said, adding that work will ramp up during spring break to complete tasks that cannot be done while students occupy the building.
The presenter said the project team has installed a new chiller and completed HVAC upgrades where possible, but that “the library and the administrative areas” will require further work and are likely to be done over the summer.
The staff member reported encountering a leaking roof curb that appears irreparable and said the district is obtaining pricing from contractors and the architect to replace it. “I don't see any way of salvaging what's there,” the staff member said. The presenter said they were coordinating on the issue with “Miss Masters and the superintendent.”
The update did not include a final cost estimate or completion date for the roof work; the presenter said pricing would be provided to the board once available.
