Facilities Improvement

Wanted to give you a quick update on what the Facilities Committee has been doing. Last year we agreed on a 5 year plan of action for the Board that included specific actions/goals for each committee for each year. Last year, the Facilities Committee's goal was to finish upgrading the roof situation at the North Campus and to install the signage at the North Campus. Both were accomplished by the end of July. Praise the Lord!

We have a list of significant improvements we will continue to work on over the course of the next few years. Such things as a security system at the North Campus, improve the rest rooms in the gym, team rooms/showers in the gym, etc.

This year we are planning to install the security/communication system at the North Campus. We have prioritized this investment for the following reasons:
* The safety of our children is a preeminent concern for our school and we want to do whatever we can to make sure parents (especially prospective parents) are comfortable with our efforts to provide a safe environment for their child(ren).
* We need better control of the use of our facilities. There are many (probably too many) people with keys to our facilities and we often cannot know who all uses our facilities and when they do so.
* Better situation for insurance and liability perspective. Since we are planning on installing a few cameras, we will be able to better recall what occurred in the event of accidents, vandalism, etc.

We are currently evaluating vendors and our options. We will keep you informed of our progress and timeline.
