In the superintendent's report, Dr. Fitzpatrick told the board the district will use capital funds to pay for two band-storage buildings at Gaveney High and Blacksburg High at roughly $120,000 each.
He reported the county will work to widen Softball Road beside the middle school to improve access. Dr. Fitzpatrick also highlighted community fundraising: a Special Olympics Polar Plunge fundraiser that aimed for $1,000 but ultimately raised "$3,800."
