THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
In the April 15, 2026 regular meeting, the board discussed options for adding classroom space, including converting the storeroom or the library into a classroom, and also raised concerns about the school’s current lighting. They agreed to begin working on estimates and possibilities for these building changes, indicating early-stage capital planning rather than a decided project.
This is a relevant pre-RFP facilities lead because the district has a defined space and lighting need but has not yet selected designers, contractors, or specific products. Vendors in school design, modular or interior build‑out, lighting/energy efficiency, and related consulting can help scope options, provide cost estimates, and propose phased solutions that fit the district’s budget and small-school context.
Options mentioned include converting existing storeroom or library space into a classroom and addressing outdated lighting; no architect or contractor is named yet.
