Superintendent: Oakwood move nearly complete; students expected to return next fall
Summary
Superintendent reported about 98% of Oakwood Elementary materials have moved to temporary sites; work is ongoing and the plan expects students to return to Oakwood next fall rather than a two-year relocation. Capital Reserve projects including Civic Center HVAC and water filtration at South Elementary remain active.
District leadership said the transfer of materials from Oakwood Elementary to temporary locations is nearly finished and emphasized that the plan calls for students to return to Oakwood next fall, not to remain displaced for two years as some had suggested. The superintendent credited maintenance and custodial staff for the rapid work and said about 98% of materials have been moved.
Officials also noted ongoing Capital Reserve projects: HVAC installations at the Civic Center and a water-filtration project at South Elementary are still underway. The superintendent said the district is exploring energy-saving partnerships to reduce future utility costs and that some ceiling tiles and other materials are being repurposed rather than replaced to save money.
