Superintendent McGraw outlines middle-school fixes and JCAC readiness ahead of fall
Summary
Superintendent McGraw told the board that leaking awnings were removed at middle schools, LED lighting and columns are being installed, signage and electrical work are complete, and the new JCAC building "looks phenomenal" ahead of an upcoming grand opening.
Superintendent McGraw provided a facilities update to the Jefferson City school board, describing recent construction work at middle schools and the near-complete JCAC building. He said the district removed leaking awnings at TJ and LC middle schools, added new LED lights and columns, and completed signage and electrical hookups. "Building I was in just this morning, JCAC looks phenomenal inside," McGraw said, and he said staff are preparing for a grand opening when school begins.
McGraw said classroom finishing work continues and staff will ensure buildings are ready for students. He noted the district has built in an extra week due to Labor Day scheduling and said staff will secure extra hands if needed, including help from football teams and named local volunteers. The board did not request additional capital funding during the report; no contracts or budget figures were discussed at the meeting.
