2021-22 Projjects Update - Pardon our Dust!

Superintendent Hagerman presented information including an update on the current construction projects, project timeline, and how the schools and district are navigating the logistical challenges of having projects on all campuses. Approximately 85% of the construction projects are being funded by the Arizona School Facilities Board.

Once the project approvals have been obtained, it is critical that the projects are started and completed within the required timelines, so that funding is not lost. Funding is usually distributed through a two year cycle. However, because state funds have been held and are now accessible, all of our projects are taking place at the same time. The timeline and completion dates for the following projects may be seen in the October 20, 2021 - Project Updates and Timing Presentation
