Superintendent: capital projects progressing; HVAC, locker room and CTE connection underway
Summary
Superintendent Mary Foxhalter told the board that Brookside, a central AC project, and phase 1 work at Ossining High School — including a new locker room and two-story connection to the new CTE building — are moving forward on schedule and on budget.
Superintendent Mary Foxhalter briefed the board on the district's capital improvement projects and bond-related facilities work, reporting progress on multiple sites. She said the district is "finalizing the Brookside edition, the AMD central AC project and phase 1 at Ossining High School, which includes a new locker room and a 2 story addition connecting to our new CTE building."
Foxhalter described the work as moving "forward on schedule and on budget," and thanked community members for patience during construction. She noted weekly meetings with staff and consultants and offered a construction update at the next board meeting for more detail. Board members praised the video updates as a tool to keep taxpayers informed about the use of bond funds.
Members discussed naming the new Grade 7–8 building as part of the facilities conversation and the fiscal weight of the program. One board member cited roughly $210,000,000 associated with the bond and projects, noting the scale of the undertaking and why facilities are prioritized in the district's goals.
Foxhalter said administration holds frequent construction meetings with staff (naming Alita, Maria, Jeremy and Latoya) to oversee technical details while providing the board with high-level updates. The board asked for continued reporting and a construction update at the next meeting.
