Martin Tierney, the district's chief of finance and operations, told the board the district received 6,371 facilities work orders in the past year and completed 94.8% of them; the facilities group has 22 tradespeople and a crew of 16 grounds staff who maintain about 542 acres. The vehicle maintenance team completed more than 3,000 work orders, mostly on buses, and "170 buses drove 1,300,000 miles this past year," Tierney said.

Student representative Nila Natarajan presented results from a Skyline High School survey and interviews, highlighting three recurring concerns: overcrowded hallways during passing periods, bathroom conditions (broken fixtures, missing stall doors, vandalism and lack of soap or towels) and irregular classroom temperatures. "Improving bathroom maintenance, hallway flow and temperature consistency would significantly enhance student well‑being and align everyday experiences with OE‑13," she said.

Jason Morse, executive director of operations, reported that custodial staff and his team conducted a full inspection after the student report. "We identified documented vandalism concerns that were addressed," he said, and added that some bathrooms were temporarily closed while repairs were completed and that the facilities team rectified reported issues by the following afternoon. Morse said the district will continue training on reporting systems so student reports reach facilities staff more quickly.

Tom Mullins, director of capital projects, gave an update on capital work and the new high school schedule. He said all 2018 levy projects are complete or substantially complete except two HVAC recommissioning items; the district applied for an OSPI indoor air quality grant that requires no local match and expects to hear by the end of the month. Mullins said the first development commission meeting for the new high school has been rescheduled to Nov. 19 (previously Nov. 5), and the district remains on a target construction start date of March 1 and an opening date of Aug. 27. "No substantive changes or hurdles have come up through the review that would change the project significantly," Mullins told the board.

Board members thanked facilities staff and raised follow‑up questions about restroom vandalism tracking, field and track public access, and the composition of future facility assessments. The board accepted the OE‑13 monitoring report by voice vote during the meeting.
