Boards consider facility study bids and urgent asbestos, mold and air‑quality testing
Summary
Supervisors and the school board discussed two facility‑study bids (about $79,000 and $105,000) and debated targeted asbestos and air‑quality testing estimated at $25,000–$35,000; facilities staff said some sampling can be done locally at lower cost and emphasized AHERA reporting procedures.

Dr. Daniels said the division issued a solicitation for a facility study to evaluate enrollment projections, facility capacity and energy needs and reported two bids: about $79,000 (with potential add‑ons) and about $105,000.
