Summer is here, and the construction work is going at a fast pace! We are appreciative of everyone working together to make sure that everything is completed before teachers return to school in July. No school means more opportunities to get out and take pictures of the project.

On Monday, workers were getting started on the CMU walls for the second floor of the library media/student center.

Painters primed the first building; they're working on the remaining 5 buildings this summer - A, F, H, I, and J.

It looks like the fire lane grass crete paver is ready for planting. 

Progress on the second floor CMU walls!

First coat is done! Painters will do the final coat after the roofs are done and the interior is completed. 

The roofers are working on building F, taking off the old roof and replacing it with several layers of insulation and then the final roofing material.

The addition of the insulation keeps the rooms cooler than the old material.  Adding high quality ceiling fans really helps to keep the classrooms comfortable.  

Workers took down the wall that split room A4 into 2 rooms.  Now it can be turned into a classroom if we need more space, but for now, it houses our Student Services Coordinator.

Hawaii Modular Systems came by to remove the trailer that was used by the project manager. 

We're not sure when it will happen, but P12, P13, and P17 as well as P10 and P11 will be relocated to other schools and refurbished so they can be used as classrooms.  When these portables are gone, landscapers will work to plant grass in that whole area. 

Workers are also making progress on the special ed classroom as well as the covered playcourt.  I hope to take photos of that part of the project next week.
