Summmer Construction Projects and Navajo Fire Restoration If you have passed by any of our district schools recently, you have likely noticed a lot of activity! The restoration of the 5th grade wing at Navajo following the February fire is complete, and new lighting is being installed throughout the building. Lighting is shown to have an impact on energy savings and learning, so we are excited to upgrade the lighting throughout Navajo this year - and hope to upgrade lighting in the other schools in the future. We made heating and cooling upgrades in all schools this Summer, which has been a significant project. IJHS, Navajo, and Chippewa all had their Science/STEM rooms updated to better meet student needs in meeting the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). Students will be pleasantly surprised when they return in August!
