Summer Construction Update: The construction work on Neal and 2nd street is progressing and is expected to be completed before school staff return on Aug. 19th. The work includes resurfacing the parking lot and replacing sidewalks. Our Middle School has also had a facelift with carpet replacement and minor painting and repair projects. Our summer work is the final stages of the major construction project at TFS that is financed by the bond. As shared at previous Board meetings, the bond funds can only be used for construction projects that align with the original bond language. These funds cannot be used for regular operational costs. We feel very fortunate with the amount of facility expansions and upgrades we have been able to achieve . While we realize the construction over the past three years has been inconvenient for many, we are finally completing the work with an amazing campus as a result. Thank you for your patience and please reach out with any questions.
