      Summer Improvements
          2021 Edition
Along with the usual summer deep cleaning, concrete
work, and tuckpointing; other projects were also
completed or soon will be in the near future. Some of
the projects are not noticeable from the outside of the
building but will brighten up the inside. A big “thank
you” goes out to the custodial staff for completing
these projects or assisting the contractors in getting
them done.
One of the big upgrades was the remodel of the JR/SR
high library/media center. Windows were added;
shelving and seating were replaced. The elementary
library/media center also received soft seating.
In our outside areas, the elementary parking lot was
blacktopped, the football field was recrowned, and
the track was resurfaced.
