Campbellsville Independent Schools meeting 12 Sep 2016 report
BY Calen McKinney, Public Information Officer Campbellsville Independent Schools (CIS) Construction is ongoing at Campbellsville Elementary School, and is expected to be complete by the end of the calendar year. At the regular Campbellsville Board of Education meeting on Monday, September 12, 2016, Board members heard about how the construction project is progressing. Mitchell Roe, a construction manager at Codell Construction Co., said the project is moving forward nicely. He said work to the new entrance and administrative offices is going well, with workers hanging drywall and painting soon. The new kitchen is coming along well, Roe said, and workers are now working on the roof. Two time capsules unearthed in construction During construction, Roe said, two time capsules were unearthed. The first was buried by the Durham School Class of 1962, and the other was buried on Sept. 16, 1987, when the CES building was Campbellsville Middle School. Plans are in the works to have a dedication and grand opening ceremony for the CES building in February. Board member Barkley Taylor said those involved with the Durham School reunion are discussing the Class of 1962's time capsule and when it will be opened. The Durham reunion is hosted every three years, with the next being in 2017. Taylor said many of those who attended Durham School come back to Campbellsville for the reunion, so that might be the best time to open the capsule. Campbellsville Independent Schools Superintendent Mike Deaton said part of the new entrance of the CES building will be dedicated to those who attended Durham School. Until a decision is made as to when the capsules will be opened - or if they will be buried again - they will remain intact at the Board of Education office. Roe said construction is on schedule and he hopes to have the new entrance done by mid-December. He said that will give CES personnel time during Christmas break to move to their new offices. "That's my hope," he said. Roe said the CES project is contracted to be completed by Monday, January 16, 2017, but he hopes to be finished before that date. Renovations planned at CES include the addition of four new classrooms, a new HVAC unit, a fire suppression system, interior finishes, new kitchen and cafeteria, new restrooms, renovation of existing classrooms, a new playground for preschool students and work to administrative suites, parking areas and the front facade. The project began in March. Once renovations are complete at CES, and then later at CMS, all fourth- and fifth-grade students will be housed at CES, making it a more traditional elementary school, and the CMS building will better suit the needs of a middle school. The CES project will cost about $9.7 million. Superintendent's Report In his monthly report to Board members, Deaton said the first Early Release Friday of the school year was Friday, September 9, 2016, and it went very well. He said several Campbellsville Middle School students recently went to Space Camp and had a great time. The Wings Express after school program has begun at Campbellsville Elementary School, he said. Deaton said about a third of Campbellsville High School students are taking Advanced Placement classes, and several were recently honored for their high exam scores from last school year. Enrollment in the District, he said, is up by about 25 students when compared to last year. Deaton said he is pleased with the start of the 2016-2017 school year, and thanks administrators and staff members for doing a great job to start the year off right. Also at the Meeting:
