Band hall will be renovated with bond money

What happened
In May the board chose to reinforce the band hall walls for about $110,000 instead of rebuilding it for about $1.8 million. In July it approved a contract with Parkhill architects. About $1.1 million is left from the 2024 bond.
Why it matters to families
The band hall is the main bond project still to come. Students will get a new layout with more space, but timing depends on design and cost estimates.
The evidence
July 28, 2026 minutes record the Parkhill contract vote and the roughly $1.1 million balance. May 13 minutes record the $110,000 and $1.8 million options and the vote to reinforce.
