I.HUMAN RESOURCES-UPDATE
At this time, we have received one application for our middle school math position.
II. FACILITIES
A. In the upcoming month, we will be meeting with McKinstry for a detailed study on gym and kitchen improvements. We will create a list of items for improvements using the remainder of our Bond Proceeds ($781,766.79, minus the invoice for our rekeying project which is near completion). Once we receive pricing we will rank item the list based on current needs and funds available. These projects would be completed in the summer of 2024.
The current list includes:
Gym floor moisture – coming in from the north wall
Gym HVAC – we believe that the gym leaks are blowing in through the actual HVAC units. Looking at a possible way to fix this situation.
Inside gym – possibly covering the insulation on the gym ceiling and side walls.
Gym floor and tile upgrades.
Addition of ceiling projector and drop-down screen in the gym.
Kitchen floor – to match the new bathrooms.
Stainless steel counter top in the kitchen.
Once the detailed study is finished, I will bring projects for phase 3 facilities work to the board for approval. This additional work would not have been possible without the investment of our bond proceeds into the MOCATT account.
B. District Rekey
Walsh Doors are currently cutting all door cylinders. We are hopeful that this final Phase 2 project will be completed over President’s weekend.
