Blalik Middle School renovation more than 60% complete, presenter says
Summary
A presenter reported the Blalik Middle School renovation funded by the 2023 bond is over 60% complete, citing safety upgrades, refreshed student spaces and fine arts improvements; the transcript gave no completion date or overall budget figure.
A presenter said construction at Blalik Middle School "is making great progress" and that the project is "now more than 60% complete," describing the work as part of the 2023 bond program.
The presenter said the renovations are intended to create a safer, more modern learning environment. Safety and security upgrades described in the presentation include new door hardware, access control systems and security cameras throughout the campus. The presenter said students will see refreshed common areas including the library, cafeteria, administrative offices and restrooms to better support daily routines.
Fine arts spaces are also being upgraded, the presenter said, with refreshed art rooms and new storage areas to support arts programming. The renovation includes an intentional campus design that assigns a thematic identity to each grade-level hallway—6th grade as the den, 7th grade moving through the forest and 8th grade arriving at the summit—with coordinated colors and flooring to foster a sense of belonging.
The transcript did not specify a target completion date or a total project budget. No formal motions or votes were recorded in the provided transcript excerpt.
