Summit Architects updates Muhlenberg County school construction projects
Summary
Summit Architects reported on ongoing work at Longest Elementary, Muhlenberg Middle School cafeteria renovation, and the Bienenberg Middle School field house; timelines include targeted fall work and some items deferred until fall break.
Representatives from Summit Architects briefed the Muhlenberg County Board of Education on construction activity across the district.
Charles Mathew Jr. of Summit Architects said the general contractor is working on classroom wings at Longest Elementary and that a new temporary electric pole has been installed. He said the planned Longest addition is in the construction document phase and that select items will be completed once bids and schedules align.
At Muhlenberg Middle School the cafeteria renovation will include new cable railing, lighting rework and aesthetic adjustments; some remaining work will be scheduled for breaks to avoid disrupting students. The Bienenberg Middle School field house is out to bid, the presenter said.
At the high school, the presenter noted remaining punch-list items including sinks and a kitchen paint schedule; some work will wait until fall break for safety and logistics. Board members asked clarifying questions about the sequencing of work and temporary utilities.
No formal vote was required for the construction update; staff said they will return with bid results and additional timeline details when available.
