Less than one month before teachers return to school. Yikes! Will everything get done on time? The contractor assures me they will, and I trust that he knows what he's saying.  They've brought in extra crews, and everyone is working really hard.

The classroom abatements are complete - no more plastic tents covering the buildings! Roofers are taking off the old materials and installing new layers; gutters should be coming in next week. Painters are almost done with the exteriors of the 5 renovated buildings and the doors and trimmings are left. The interior is complete in all of the buildings except F. Beginning ext week, the floor tiles will be installed, and work continues on the library media/student center, the special education classroom, and the covered play court. Landscapers are preparing to plant grass by the classroom building and lastly, Portables 12, 13, and 17 are being prepared to be removed with Portables 10 and 11 to follow.

Workers had to dig a trench for the sewer line to the special education classroom and the covered play court.

The steelworkers completed the railings for the second floor balcony in the classroom building.

The CMU walls for the media/student center are almost complete!

This is the back of the building.  There will be a walkway in the front as well as the back of the building. 

Portable 12 is ready to be transported to Campbell High School at 11:00 p.m. tonight!  Portables 13 and 17 will be moved within the next week.

I got to go on a tour to see the progress inside the construction project.  This is the area where the Student Services Coordinator and the counselors will have their offices. 

This is the library part of the building.  Notice the high ceiling.  The open areas will be windows for natural lighting.

This is the front of the library building.  There will be a bench in that recessed area so students can wait for parents to come through the parking lot and pick them up after school.
