Welcome to Foundations, focused on highlighting projects across the district that support student learning and achievement while modernizing and maintaining our school buildings.

Capital Projects & Technology Projects

During the Pine Tree Elementary window replacement project from the 2018 levy, there was an issue with the interior finishes of the operable windows, as well as the limiters when opening. Trim was installed to match existing conditions of the fixed windows and limiters were installed in the track to keep the windows from opening more than four inches.

Meeker Middle School boiler replacement project from the 2018 levy was completed in the fall of 2023. This work included:

• Removing the existing boiler and replacing it with three high efficiency units.
• Replacing the small satellite boiler with a new efficient boiler.
• Replacing water heaters and main water tank.
• Replacing water lines, conduits, pumps, and motors associated with the system.

Lake Youngs Elementary library roof replacement has been completed from the 2016 Bond. This is only the start of the entire project. This work included:

• Tearing off old shingles and underlayment.
• Cleaning and removing fasteners from the deck.
• Installing starter metals and starter shingles.
• Installing ice & water shield as well as synthetic underlayment.
• Installation of laminate shingles and cap metal ridge.

Kent Elementary School

The Technology Support Services team successfully conducted a training session on the printer badge scanning process at Kent Elementary School. This initiative was led by Troy Ugaddan, Technology Support Specialist I, and Nate Crawford, Technology Support Specialist II. The purpose of this training was to familiarize the staff with the new system that is in the process of being implemented to enhance the efficiency and security of our printing services.

Coming Soon

Carriage Crest Elementary School Parking Lot

The design phase has been completed for the parking lot entrance improvements at Carriage Crest Elementary School from the 2016 bond. This work will be completed in summer 2024 and includes removing a portion of the north side of the existing entrance to accommodate an entrance lane and two exit lanes. The rest of the parking lot will be seal coated and receive new striping. This work will help with site access during arrival and dismissal times and preserve the condition of the asphalt.

Meeker Middle School HVAC

The design has been started for the Meeker HVAC upgrade from the 2018 levy in conjunction with the controls upgrade project from the 2016 bond. The engineering team is looking at ways to temper the air utilizing the existing tunnels and pathways from the original building. Construction is anticipated to start in summer 2025.
