Teachers returned to work yesterday, and the rest of the ten-month staff returned today, so it's been pretty busy at school.  Because students are returning next Monday, the work has been fast and furious!  Today, workers started putting up the stakes for the dust screens.  This will  prevent students from wandering into the construction area.  However, there are places where the screen is lower so students can peek in to see what is going on.

Tomorrow, the monkeypod tree is being cut down, and air conditioners will be installed in P12, P13, and P14.  We were worried that these projects would not be completed before school begins, but we appreciate everyone who made this a priori ty.  With the hot, muggy weather we've been having, those portables would have been unbearable!

Here are a few photos from today:

Right -- This is what they used to bore/drill holes in the ground to place the 12' stakes securely.


Left -- The fire lane is almost covered completely.  Just a short section remains.
Right -- Workers used a forklift and a wooden crate to ensure that the stakes were securely in place.


Left -- Barriers were placed strategically so no one would go into the construction area and get hurt.
