What happened

On August 3 the board declared an emergency for asbestos remediation and repairs to the Fox Lane High School main gym floor; it authorized up to $1 million from unassigned balance if remaining bond funds are insufficient.

Why it matters to families

The main gym was closed during investigation, affecting physical education and athletics. On October 6, bond committee minutes reported core test results; the reviewed records do not establish that repairs were complete.

The evidence

August 3 board minutes record a 6–0 vote. October 6 bond committee minutes describe test results.
