Superintendent Report 

Congratulations to Pam Devers! She is our District Teacher of the Year. 

Construction Update: 

The in-wall plumbing inspection went well at the Phase 3 project. It passed and the walls are now covered. Tiling should start next week in the group restrooms. They are dry walling areas throughout the computer rooms and commons area. Electrical wants to fini a little more rough in before they call for an inspection. Framing has moved to the two new classrooms that are in the old computer lab area, and they ran out of material today. More material will be here next week, so they will not be without long. Voy has installed the French drain around the perimeter of the old air handler pit, and is now back filling the pit to bring it up to the same level as the surrounding floor. Progress is still going well.
