Summary
Superintendent Doctor Lutz told the board the McAnulty construction outreach is complete, the district recorded and will post the presentation, packing logistics are being planned for teachers and June 12 is a possible concentrated packing day; bids have been awarded and some onsite design work (parking lot) continues.
Superintendent Doctor Lutz updated the board on McAnulty Elementary construction, outreach and logistics, saying the district completed parent information sessions, recorded the presentation for posting and is planning staff packing and moves.
Lutz said informational sessions for parents were held across times and locations and that "we did about a a dozen sessions" and that he recorded the presentation to post on the district website and via Skyward. He said teachers will receive time and space to pack, with June 12 offered as a concentrated packing day to avoid extra staff days and related costs.
On construction status, Lutz said bids have been awarded and contractors can begin procuring materials, but the district has not yet held a first construction meeting. He also said he has been meeting with Rob Schafer of HHSDR on high-school parking lot resurfacing and expects materials or bid information in April or May.
Why it matters: The schedule and logistical choices affect families whose students will be relocated temporarily or whose school-day times may shift during the construction period. Lutz said administrators are working to minimize program impacts, noting that some teachers will move from the first to the third floor at the high school and that the district is not taking additional space beyond what is already available.
Next steps: The district will post the recorded presentation, continue meetings with design and construction partners and return with bid documents and recommended timelines when available.
