Superintendent told the board the high school gym floor was resurfaced and that the weight room project is in progress with flooring installed and equipment being moved. "The basketball team the current basketball team has already practiced on it, and they've really appreciated the ability of move," the superintendent said.
On visitor seating, the superintendent announced a prior estimate for visiting bleachers of "about $70,000," noting the estimate did not include required concrete or site preparation and asked permission to contact boosters and local businesses to seek sponsorship. Board members expressed support for exploring options and covering costs through fundraising or sponsorship.
Why it matters: Facility upgrades and spectator accommodations affect student-athlete experience, safety, and community attendance. The board indicated interest in pursuing external funding sources before committing district funds.
Next steps: Superintendent will begin contacting boosters and local businesses to explore sponsorship and return with cost and funding options.
