The capital project that was approved by voters in February has been quietly moving forward with the design and planning phase. Recently, an important milestone was reached: design documents have been submitted by our architects to the New York State Education Department for review and approval. As we continue to complete the necessary steps to be ready for the construction phase, members of the architect and construction management firms will begin working in the buildings to develop specific plans related to the project. Actual construction is expected to begin before the end of this school year. We are very excited to see this project move forward, and we are grateful to our school communities for their support of these important improvements to our campuses. Thank you!
