Summary

Superintendent John Thompson said Measure N passed and the district has selected an architect for a major remodel of James Logan High School. He said the design phase will begin in the fall and that community members will be invited to give input.

John Thompson, superintendent, said in a year-end video update that voters approved Measure N and the district has selected an architect for a major James Logan High School project. "We selected an architect for the James Logan High School remodel and it's more than a remodel and that that is exciting," Thompson said.

Thompson framed Measure N as the district's capital program for moving projects into 2025–26. He said some Measure N projects are already starting and that the bond will bridge work between the two school years. The superintendent said the design phase for James Logan will begin in the fall and "members of our community, teachers, staff, parents, [and] students will have an opportunity to provide some input on what they'd like to see at Logan."

Thompson described early conceptual designs as promising but said the district will seek community feedback before finalizing plans. He also noted construction schedules have been affected by delays on several projects and that the district hopes work will commence and fields will open during the 2025–26 school year.

The district did not provide a construction start date, a budget figure, or a named architect in the update. Thompson said broader Measure N work is "starting and moving forward," but details on timelines and specific project budgets were not specified in the video. The district plans to begin community engagement in the fall as the next procedural step.
