Good Luck FCCLA! #RollTribe
As compressor warranties end, HVAC repair costs will dramatically increase after August 2026.
Congratulations to our FFA Members on a successful State FFA! Once again, bringing home the hardware!!! #RollTribe
Why the BOE chose to go with the geothermal solution:
The rising costs associated with HVAC expenditures have taken funds away from educational needs.

Today, we discuss the potential for facilty closures due to the failure of the HVAC system due to extreme weather conditions.
We are exploring the possibility of offering Summer School for students currently in grades K-4. Please click on the following link if you are interested in Summer School for your child(ren).

Today, we give an overview of the previous costs of the HVAC system.
Over the next week, we will discuss the district's issues with the current HVAC system, the decision to request a bond election to replace the system, and the potential financial impacts of passage or failure of the bond. Today, we will give an overview of three major issues.

Congratulations to our Winter ECNC All-Conference honorees! #wwpride #rolltribe
We have had a couple of questions about the bond that we will post over the next couple of days. Questions #5 & 6:
What about the average cost of the Geothermal once it ages? Will it be half of the Annual Utility Maintenance cost, currently?
With assumptions regarding occupancy, weather, utility costs, and performance that can greatly affect payback, we estimate a 30% annual utility savings. We anticipate maintenance to be at or near the industry average of $0.26 per square foot. All systems have performance degradation, however we still have geothermal systems operating at a high performance level constructed in 1994.
📕📕Book Blast is a fantastic program designed to cultivate a passion for reading among our students. It provides engaging resources and activities that inspire young readers to explore new books and develop their literacy skills. 📕📕 Thank you to all of the parents, grandparents, and community members whose generosity has made this possible. 🤩We are thrilled to announce that we have successfully distributed 375 books to enrich the home libraries of our 142 PreK-5th grade students! Your support is invaluable to us, and we deeply appreciate it!🤩 ❤️ WW Teachers and Students Here is our video Thank You: https://youtu.be/q1auon918oA
We have had a couple of questions about the bond that we will post over the next couple of days. Questions #3 & 4: Why is the well field at the practice field? It is prone to flooding. Why not use the gravel parking lot?
The architects evaluated multiple areas owned by the school, including the grassy areas around the building, the parking lot, and the practice football field. Ultimately, they determined that the practice football field was the best location.
Once a well field is installed, that area cannot be used for future construction. While the school has no current or future building plans, the well field is designed to last 50 years, making long-term flexibility a consideration. The practice field is in a floodplain, so the district will never build there. In addition, the area's higher water table is better for the geothermal system.
Though piping the extra block will incur additional costs, preserving future flexibility was a priority in our decision.
Here is the video from the informational meeting. It does an excellent job of describing the problem, the actions taken to address it, and why the BOE decided to pursue the bond. It is worth watching to be informed about the issue.
