Summary

District staff reported progress on parking‑lot dirt work and new lighting, ongoing window installations, carpet and gym‑floor repairs, and a lightning‑related damage assessment that may be submitted to insurance if costs exceed the deductible.

District staff provided a facilities update that covered multiple capital projects and recent storm damage. Staff (Speaker 1) said windows are being installed, carpets are nearly finished, concrete work is scheduled to start Monday and some new parking‑lot lights are in place. He noted that lightning caused damage to some systems and that electricians and adjusters are assessing repairs; "we'll put it to insurance if it's, you know, way above our deductible," the staff member said.

Board members asked about gym floors, bleacher railings and ceiling laminate that had pulled up; staff said contractors will sand and refinish affected areas. Staff and members agreed to short‑term fixes such as unplugging sensitive electronics on storm days and to look at longer‑term grounding and preventative measures. The board received estimates and timelines for immediate repairs and asked staff to continue coordinating with contractors and insurance carriers.
