Perryton ISD board approves $4.59 million budget for Right Elementary Phase 3
Summary
The Perryton ISD board approved a $4,589,122 base budget (with a recommended $100,000 contingency) for Phase 3 of the Right Elementary project covering classroom infill, office/vestibule renovation, restrooms and a new front entry; the vote carried as recorded in the meeting.
Perryton ISD Board approved the proposed budget for Phase 3 of the Right Elementary renovation and addition. The board moved and seconded the measure; the motion carried in the meeting record.
The project package is divided into four areas: Area A (courtyard infill adding three classrooms and a configurable work room and corridor), Area B (office renovations and a secured vestibule at the former stage location), Area C (new boysand girlsrestrooms near the cafeteria), and Area D (new front facade, covered entry and east-lawn irrigation). The base budget presented without contingency was $4,589,122; staff compared that to an earlier estimate of $4,905,689 and indicated a $316,567 difference they recommended retaining in bond funds for other projects.
The presentation included finish options (terrazzo flooring as an option in corridors), a split-face masonry option versus limestone on the east elevation, a new TPO roof strategy to avoid roof drains, and a proposed $100,000 contingency. Staff also reported receiving several bids from local contractors: concrete from a contractor in Booker and mechanical/electrical proposals from a firm in Spearman; a local electrical bid was higher than the Spearman proposal. The team estimated a 12- to 14-month construction timeline.
Board members discussed the need for the additional classrooms given district enrollment trends, and staff explained that the infill allows flexible use (professional development space convertible to classrooms) and would relieve capacity constraints next school year. The board approved the budget as presented.
The motion was recorded as carried in the meeting transcript; the audio record indicates the board vote as recorded on the meeting line as "Motion carries 61." The transcript does not provide a detailed, person-by-person roll-call in the public remarks section.
