October 2022 Capital Project Update

October 28, 2022
We are excited to share that our Elementary Village is 90% complete! The final touches are being completed in November and we are patiently waiting to move into our new building.
Since the last update, we have seen many changes on the exterior. The site was graded, loamed, and seeded. The construction crew finished paving the roadways and lower parking lot. New canopies were also installed in front of the Elementary Village and the Friedberg Building. Inside the Elementary Village, the ceiling was installed, the rooms were painted, light fixtures were installed, and the installation of the floors began.
Looking ahead, the cabinets, countertops, and appliances will be installed in November. In addition, the interior doors, access controls, and plumbing fixtures will be finalized. Unfortunately, there continue to be supply chain delays and worker shortages. We are still waiting for fire alarm parts, as well as for BGE to install our electrical systems.

Right now we are looking at building delivery in the middle of December, assuming we get the fire alarm parts in. Thank you for your patience and support as we continue the important work of having our campus fully prepared!
