A new principals office and conference room were created, and the fire alarm system was updated.

Gearld Wright Elementary

The interior of Gearld Wright Elementary was remodeled so patrons enter the front office to be checked in before gaining access to the building. The final piece of the remodel (ADA actuators) is on backorder.

Very similar to Gearld Wright Elementary, the interior of Whittier Elementary was remodeled so patrons enter the front office to be checked in before gaining access to the building. The final piece of the remodel (ADA actuators) is on backorder.

Eastwood Elementary

Eastwood Elementary’s remodel reconfigured the entry system so patrons enter the front office to be checked in prior to gaining access to the building.
