Types of work completed include carpet replacement, alarm systems, floor tile, gymnasium floor replacement, and new sidewalks. A major project to renovate the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system at this school was performed during the past year. The project included removal and replacement of rooftop units and the addition of a new air-cooled chiller to supply cooling to new air handlers on the roof. The second half of the roof replacement, consisting of the remaining two of four buildings, was completed by Brothers Construction, Inc. during the past summer. Final planning and preparations are underway for this project which is anticipated to go out to bid next year.
Work is ongoing to provide educational specifications to guide the architect in project design.
The next stage in this process will be architect selection and design development. Hats off to the hard-working custodial staffs in these two schools, as well as to our maintenance staff, who protect and maintain the facilities in which our children are taught. Cecil County was honored to receive two Smart Growth Awards from Governor Glendening and the Maryland Department of Planning during the past year.
