This will provide an equitable classroom experience for all students, better focus for students and teachers and year-round use of spaces.
$529,254 (1.3% of the total project)
This will allow the increased use of Sammon Field, especially in the evening hours, as well as provide the HS Marching Band with a safe space to practice. As of now, they practice in the HS parking lot.
$1,081,691 (2.8% of the total project)
Once the current upgrades are completed, the anticipated work to be done includes an upgraded sound system and improved stage lighting.
$749,777 (1.9% of the total project)
The replacement of the stadium scoreboard with a video scoreboard will enhance video capabilities used during sporting events and special "nights', such as the Golden Circle of Bands and Cancer Awareness and Suicide Prevention Nights. The current scoreboard's controllers' connection fails intermittently. If not included in the Capital Project and the existing board fails, the replacement cost would not be eligible for state aid.
