• Once voters approved Proposition I and Proposition N on the April 5 ballot, we could start to spend money on planning and designing the projects.
• On April 28, the Board of Education asked for a master plan sequencing the projects, to be presented at the July 28 Board meeting. We began determining the most efficient, effective way to sequence the projects, with some help from architects and construction experts.
• Supply chain and equipment issues delayed projects that were to begin right away, such as Park Hill High School’s upper gym and weight room air conditioning. The maintenance and improvements projects that are underway are not from bond funds; they are part of our regular, pre-planned maintenance cycle.
• At the June 23 Board meeting, the district presented the budget, which includes projects from the April 2022 ballot propositions.

• At the July 28 Board meeting, the district presented the plan for sequencing the projects. The Board was able to offer feedback to improve the plan.

• At the August 11 Board meeting, the district received approval for the plan sequencing the projects.
• The district began the process to select architects and a construction manager.
• The district began to build design teams and to get input from staff and the community on upcoming projects.

• The district Identified and chose architects and construction management firms.
• Project Design Team meetings began in late November.

• Design Teams met throughout these five months to design and produce renderings for Russell Jones Education Center, Park Hill High School, Park Hill South High School and Elementary 12.

• Preparing renderings for construction start on Russell Jones Education Center, Park Hill High School, Park Hill South High School and Elementary 12.
