Summer Updates on the School Construction Bonds!

Welcome back! It's hard to believe summer break is coming to an end. The increased bustle of activity around campus is a sure sign that the start of the school year is quickly approaching. The first day for students is Monday, August 26, and it will be a half-day for all students!

While parents, students, and staff have been away, an enormous amount of activity and work has transpired behind the scenes on the school bond work. As a reminder, the community affirmed the passage of two school construction bonds totaling $110 million this past May. \

Thank you, community!

We have adopted the following guiding principles for this bond work:

• Preserve Existing Assets - Replace with intentionality
• Prioritize Safety + Security - Safe and secure
• Provide Future-Focused Academic + Student
• Experiences - Reflective of inner excellence
• Enhance Infrastructure - Dependable, updated, future-ready systems
• Demonstrate Fiscal Responsibility - Invest wisely, communicate clearly

This summer's bond work has included many preliminary details, including building our team:

• The Veridus Group, our owner's representative;
• TowerPinkster, our architect; and
• AVB, our construction company.

Additional work around the upcoming construction included securing

• surveys;
• geotechnical, civil engineering, and traffic services;
• organizing the issuance and sale of construction bonds; and,
• executing extensive master campus site planning and configuration conceptual designs.

We want to thank all the parents and guardians for entrusting us with the privilege of partnering with you to nurture and support the growth of your children. As we roll out the welcome mat for students and families, we hope you feel the warmth, kindness, and sincerity we have for you!

We look forward to a fantastic year ahead!
