Greenwood 52 board reviews capital-project estimates and reports roughly $1.8 million available for projects
Summary
Finance director Jennifer Fleming told the board the district has about $1.8 million in capital-project funds, outlined remaining bond and transfer balances, and presented preliminary cost estimates for bleachers and PA systems; asbestos abatement on a district building has finished and the district is awaiting a demolition date.
Jennifer Fleming, the district finance lead, presented the monthly financial report and updated the Greenwood County School District 52 Board of Trustees on several capital projects on March 10, 2026.
Fleming said media-center furniture has been ordered and that a contractor on state contract has measured four locations for digital marquees and will provide drawings and pricing. She reported the district has received one quote for painting the district office and is awaiting two additional quotes.
Fleming said asbestos abatement on the building listed in the minutes as the "White House" began on March 2 and was finished by the end of that week; the district is awaiting the contractor's demolition date. She also listed preliminary cost estimates for planned work on tracks, bleachers and PA systems: about $297,000 for the EMS/NSHS complex, $147,000 for NSPS and $131,000 for NSES. Fleming said grant funding could potentially offset costs at two locations but did not specify amounts.
On budgets, Fleming reported approximately $1.8 million in the District Capital Projects Fund; nearly $800,000 remains from a previously noted $4.5 million transfer intended to finish the Multiplex; about $540,000 remains from prior bond issuances; and the minutes list a FY2026 bond issuance amount of $600,000. Fleming presented these figures as available funding for near-term capital work and said staff will continue refining estimates and funding plans.
The minutes record no further detail on grant identities or exact demolition timing beyond that the contractor has not yet provided a demolition date. The board did not take a separate funding action at the meeting; members were presented with these reports for review.
