The May 2026 accounts payable and May Board Budget Report show active spending on a Lead-Deadwood Middle School remodel, including payments to JLG Architects, Interstate Engineering, Jacobs Precision Welding, Waters Hardware, and Karl's TV & Appliance for remodel furniture. These expenditures are booked to the Capital Outlay Fund and tied to construction, land services, and furnishings, indicating that design and construction work is underway rather than just being planned. The district’s capital outlay budget still shows a remaining balance for construction and improvements, suggesting additional phases or related purchases may follow.This matters for vendors because there is an ongoing multi-vendor capital project with clear evidence of architectural, engineering, construction, and furniture needs. There may be follow-on opportunities for specialized furnishings, technology integration, finishes, and maintenance once initial remodel work is completed.

MS remodel appears in multiple vendor payments (materials, furniture, professional services), indicating a multi-phase project; additional technology, security, and FF&E needs are likely as the space is finished out.
