Summary
Trustees approved repurposing Miller Elementary for district facility support (storage and staging) and authorized contracting with CCS Presentation Systems for auditorium audiovisual upgrades not to exceed $704,000, funded by rec mill dollars and expanded to all three large high schools.
The Laramie County School District No. 1 board approved two facilities actions: repurposing the Miller Elementary building for district facility support and authorizing a contract for high school auditorium audiovisual upgrades.
On Miller Elementary, the board moved to repurpose the building for support operations, including staging, storage and indoor storage of equipment. District staff said the facility will not house students at this time and that retaining the property allows continued community and district use of the athletic fields.
Separately, trustees granted permission to contract with CCS Presentation Systems for audiovisual updates at high school auditoriums for an amount not to exceed $704,000. Trustee Ashby told the board the project will be paid from rec mill dollars and thanked the board for expanding the project27s scope beyond a single school to include all three large high schools.
Both measures were adopted by voice vote. Facilities and technology staff are expected to finalize contract documents and return records to the board, and facilities staff will prepare a repurposing plan for Miller Elementary for future board review.
