Also included is new fire protection system, PA System, fire alarm work, interior finishes and ADA upgrades through out all schools. "The construction phase will be challenging but worth the effort. We have a great opportunity to make a difference in the lives of the children that go to these schools now and in the future. Our renovation work will shape these schools for years to come," said Meyers.
