This summer, Phase I of a 2.8 Million Dollar HVAC Project began with the replacement of 51 HVAC units at Starr-Iva Middle. The main goal of this capital project was to improve air quality within the school by replacing old units. ESSER (COVID-19) funds supported the project. ๐ซโ๏ธ
The massive task has been challenging due to the shortened summer timeline. Thanks to the hard work of the US&S Facility Services Team, 75% of the school is now complete and operational. Over the weekend, the SIMS facilities team and backup from other schools worked to wax floors and prepare the school. Thanks to their hard work, Starr-Iva Middle will now be able to host their 6th Grade Tiger Camp at SIMS on Tuesday!
While this project has been challenging, we are thankful for our team pulling together to prepare the school for students, staff, and families. ๐คฉ๐
