District reports near-complete construction; board weighs ribbon cutting before open house
Summary
Superintendent said the new building entrance, science labs and track fence are largely finished; the board discussed a ribbon-cutting before the scheduled open house but weighed janitorial and fair-week timing concerns.
Superintendent Steve told the board that major construction work is wrapping up: the track fence is up, the asphalt base is complete and the district expects to be within a roughly 30-day window before crews lay the rubberized track surface. High-school science labs have cabinets and furniture installed; a small number of electrical outlets and a floor patch remain to be finished.
On the elementary site, temporary windows and lights are in place pending final materials. The superintendent proposed a ribbon-cutting at 1 p.m. before the open house; board members expressed enthusiasm but noted conflicts with fair week and cleanup timelines for janitorial staff. "...the ribbon cutting would be prior to that [open house]," the superintendent said, asking whether the board wanted to proceed or push the event later.
The board also discussed finer details: the shot-put area needs a more durable border (aluminum was deemed too easily dented) and the district is awaiting a bid; the board will receive an update after a planned progress meeting the next day. Staff invited board members to tour the finished areas after the meeting.
