Evergreen Elementary construction ahead of schedule, district told

Enumclaw School District Board of Directors · August 17, 2026

Summary

A project presenter told the Enumclaw School Board that Evergreen Elementary's construction is progressing well: footings are in, utilities and sidewalks are in place, and GMP 3 (full project budget) will be presented at the next meeting. The board discussed occupancy and risk given a tight schedule.

A project presenter told the Enumclaw School District board the Evergreen Elementary project "is moving along extraordinarily well," with foundations and footings poured in many areas and utilities and sidewalks already in place.

The presenter said the team has executed three contract amendments (validation phase and two GMPs) and expects to present a third guaranteed maximum price (GMP 3) at the next board meeting to cover the full project budget. Work underway includes site prefabrication, long-lead mechanical buyouts, and preparations to start framing later this year; the presenter said 90% construction documents are due Oct. 19 with 100% CDs to follow.

Board members pressed on schedule risk and occupancy planning. Dr. Wenzel and the presenter noted the timeline is tight—occupancy is targeted in late July—so staff and partners are actively monitoring risk and commissioning plans to provide a turnkey opening.
