Facilities report: Elbert kitchen roof replaced; Jubilee, Alberta Middle and Loxley work on schedule
Summary
Facilities staff told the board an Elbert Elementary kitchen roof required removal and replacement, Alberta Middle has classroom slabs and trusses installed, Jubilee is on track for July completion if schedule holds, and Loxley and Magnolia gym finals are planned in coming months.
Facilities and operations staff reported progress and recent remedial work across multiple projects in the district.
Frank, who leads facilities updates for the district, said a final inspection at Elbert Elementary before the holiday break found issues with a rubber roof over the kitchen that required removing the roof. "We made the contractor tear the roof off. All that's been completed," he told the board, and a follow-up final inspection is scheduled for Jan. 22.
Frank summarized multiple projects: classroom slabs at Alberta Middle are poured and trusses are being set, with one remaining slab for the gym; Daphne High and Daphne North are progressing; Jubilee is on schedule for a possible July completion if timelines hold; Loxley’s final looks likely in March; and the early learning academy plans are ready to bid. He also described progress on the transportation bays and a roughly 24,000-square-foot slab poured on the south side of the transportation building.
Board members asked about occupancy timing for new schools; Frank said staff expect to wait until summer to move into the new Loxley facility rather than mid-school year. The facilities update was delivered as information: no construction contracts or approvals were moved in this work session.
