Capital Project Community Forum
Over the past few years, several community members have discussed with Board of Education members, a desire to improve and enhance our school facilities.
The Board has been working with the district’s architect, March Associates, to develop a workable plan to meet the community requests and the school’s needed upgrades. On September 27, 2017 at 6:00 pm in the Small Gym, Chris Crolius of March Associates presented a preliminary plan that was requested by the Board addressing some of the things that were requested.
One of the suggestions was a new auditorium for concert events, graduation ceremonies, award assemblies, Drama Club performances, student assemblies, etc. Another suggestion was to add a new running track and to improve our outdoor athletic facilities. Community members have also asked about replacing the red storage barn near the front edge of our property and to increase parking. We also work very closely with the Village, Town and Tioughnioga Fire Department sharing our fueling depot with them to save fuel costs at all levels for everyone. We are in need of a new fueling station that is more up to date and accessible. We also have a 5 year facilities report that discusses some areas such as the 1976 roof and the big gym roof that we must renovate or replace soon. We also need to look at our heating system and bring it up to date as well.
Please click on the link below to see the preliminary plan. We will keep you updated as we progress through the process. If you have any questions or suggestions, please do not hesitate to contact any Board Member, Mr. Walters, Mr. Southard, or Mr. Springer.
